Powerball ticket sold in LAs Mid-City matches 5 of 6 numbers NBC Los Angeles [Video]

A Powerball ticket sold at a Mid-City market was oh-so-close to the jackpot in Monday night’s lottery drawing.

The ticket sold at Teddy’s Liquor & Market is still worth a hefty sum of $161,556 after matching five numbers and just missing the Powerball.

With no jackpot winners, the top prize for Wednesday night’s drawing jumped to $75 million.

Powerball tickets with five numbers, but missing the Powerball number, sold in other states are worth $1 million or $2 million, but California law requires major payoffs of lottery games to be paid on a pari-mutuel basis, meaning they are determined by sales and the number of winners and can be less or more than $1 million.

The numbers drawn Monday were 6, 18, 33, 48, 53 and the Powerball number was 2. The estimated jackpot was $65 million.
