The winning numbers were drawn just after 11pm ET on Wednesday and we have the results below.

If someone gets the lucky ticket for Wednesday’s jackpot, they could take home about $230.5 million after taxes, according to the lottery.

How do you play the Powerball?

To buy a $2 Powerball ticket, you’ll need to go to your local convenience store, gas station or grocery store — and in a handful of states you can buy tickets online.

To play you must choose a total of six numbers to mark on your ticket. Five numbers are white balls, ranging from the numbers 1 to 69. The Powerball is red and one number is between 1 and 26.

If you want to increase your chances of winning, you can add a “Power Play” for $1, which increases winnings for all non-jackpot prizes. This addition can multiply the profit by 2X, 3X, 4X, 5Xor 10X.

Players can also ask a cashier for a “Quick Pick,” where a cashier gives you computer-generated numbers on a printed Powerball ticket.

Drawings are made on Monday, Wednesday and Saturday evenings. If there is no jackpot winner, the cash prize increases by millions.
