New York.- Dozens of Dominican families live in the area of ​​the Bigby gas station, located at 119 Bruckner Boulevard in the Bronx, where one lucky person withdrew a million dollars a month ago and has not claimed it.

The prize matches Powerball and its officials say there is another winner of one million dollars as a second prize in Dutchess County in the north of NY state.

The store that sold the winning ticket will not receive a share of the winnings. The lottery says a business must sell one grand prize ticket to earn the $10,000 commission, and second-prize tickets will not count.

Drawings are held Monday, Wednesday and Saturday at 10:59 pm (Eastern Time) and one ticket is awarded if there are 5 numbers + Powerball (Jackpot) and 5 only, US$1,000,000; 4 numbers + Powerball = $50,000 and 4 numbers alone = $100.

Prize with 3 numbers + Powerball = $100 and Prize with only 3 numbers = $7.00; With 2 numbers + Powerball = $7.00 and with 1 number + Powerball = $4 dollars. The jackpot in NY hit on October 27, 2018 with $687.8 million dollars.
