There is good news and bad news for those who tried their luck with January 26 Powerball lottery tickets. The bad news is that no tickets matched all five numbers and the red Powerball, but the good news is that the jackpot has increased to $151 million, according to the Multi-State Lottery Association.
The winning numbers were 3-22-26-41-49 and the red Powerball was 18.
Although no one won the huge jackpot, six tickets were sold that had five matching numbers. The Match 5 tickets, which net $1 million for their owners, were sold in Arizona, Kansas, North Carolina, Oregon, Tennessee and Texas.
The Powerball is played in 42 states, Washington, D.C. and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
The next Powerball drawing will be on January 30.
