Eyeing the $1.5 billion Powerball jackpot? Here’s what to know.

With $1.5 billion in the pot, the winner of the next Powerball drawing could get a prize few have ever seen.

After Wednesday’s drawing yielded no winner, the game’s jackpot climbed close to the world record — $1.586 billion in 2016, which was shared by multiple winners — and will likely surpass it if Saturday’s drawing does not yield a winning ticket. It is now the third-largest lottery jackpot ever.
