(Reuters) – A lucky ticket holder could be enriched by $ 768 million Wednesday night after the draw for the third largest American jackpot Powerball in the history of the lottery, officials said.

The winning numbers are 16, 20, 37, 44, 62 and Powerball 12.

The jackpot has surpassed the $ 600 million mark for the fourth time in its history last week for the price of a $ 2 bill, officials said.

This week's draw took third place after surpassing Powerball's $ 758 million total in August 2017.

No winning tickets have been announced immediately. The single cash payment option is estimated at more than $ 465 million, the lottery announced in a press release.

The next draw on Powerball was scheduled for Saturday, March 30th.
