Last Wednesday’s Powerball failed to produce a winner and the next jackpot stays untaken going into tonight’s draw, raising stakes for bettors.
Shops are offering tickets in the United Kingdom alongside the U.S., a new market the lottery opened this week, extending its footprint.
Some American players argue the international push creates a disadvantage for locals anyway, a point of contention.
Lottery officials anticipate quicker prize escalation because the volume of tickets sold overnight is rising, which may drive even higher revenue.
Live results for tonight’s numbers will be published on the official Powerball website and local lottery pages after the 11 p.m. ET draw, for fans across the continent.
