Powerball Player Wins $50,000 with Double Play

Oct 25, 2023

While their numbers didn’t win in the main drawing on Oct. 7, a lucky Powerball player who added the Double Play feature to their ticket was able to play those same numbers again in a second drawing for another chance to win. The ticket matched four of the five white-ball numbers, plus the Powerball, in the Double Play drawing – resulting in a $50,000 prize.

The winning ticket was purchased at QuikTrip, 604 Big Bend Road, in St. Louis.

For an extra $1, Double Play allows players to enter their same Powerball numbers into a second drawing following the main Powerball drawing. The winning Double Play numbers for Oct. 7 were 13, 31, 51, 55 and 66, and the Powerball was 23. 

Wednesday’s Powerball jackpot is estimated at $100 million.
