Players in Missouri and Texas won the nearly $1.8 billion Powerball jackpot Saturday night, the second largest prize in U.S. lottery history, after more than three months without a big winner.

       Two lucky tickets -- one sold in Missouri, the other in Texas -- matched all six numbers in Saturday's drawing, according to Powerball.

       The winning numbers in Saturday night's drawing were: 11, 23, 44, 61 and 62 with Powerball 17.

       The winning ticketholders, who will share the jackpot, can choose between a lump sum cash payment of $410.3 million or $893.5 million spread out over 30 annual payments that increase by 5% each year.

       Saturday’s drawing was the 42nd since the Powerball jackpot was last won on May 31 in California. The current streak has tied the game’s record for the most consecutive drawings without a jackpot winner.

       With final ticket sales, the Powerball jackpot came in at $1.787 billion, the organization said, which is the second largest in the game's history.

       The odds of winning the jackpot were 1 in 292.2 million, while the overall odds of winning any prize are 1 in 24.9.
