The Powerball jackpot will continue its climb through billion-dollar territory after no ticket matched all six numbers drawn Monday night.

White balls 12, 26, 27, 43, 47 and red Powerball 5 were drawn. The Power Play multiplier was 2X.

The Powerball jackpot now stands at an estimated $1.2 billion for the next drawing on Wednesday night which can be seen on 21 News at 11. The jackpot has a cash value of $551.7 million.

Wednesday's estimated jackpot ranks as the third largest in the Powerball game and seventh largest among U.S. lottery jackpots.

This marks the first time in Powerball game history that back-to-back jackpot cycles have generated billion-dollar grand prizes. The Powerball jackpot was previously won on July 19 in California, when a single ticket won a jackpot worth $1.08 billion. Since then, there have been 32 consecutive drawings without a grand prize winner.

The overall odds of winning a prize are 1 in 24.9. The odds of winning the jackpot are 1 in 292.2 million.
