$150,000 Powerball ticket drawn in Kansas

TOPEKA (KSNT) – An anonymous winner claimed a Powerball lottery ticket worth $150,000 in Kansas this month as the jackpot prize climbs to nearly $650 million.

The Kansas Lottery reports that a lucky Powerball ticket was sold on Wednesday, Aug. 13 at a QuickTrip gas station located at 4202 Kansas Avenue in Kansas City, Kansas. The winning ticket’s numbers were 04-11-40-44-50 with a Powerball of 4.

Cory Thone, Kansas Lottery spokesman, said the initial prize for matching the four white balls and the Powerball resulted in a $50,000 prize. However, a 3X multiplier caused it to jump up to $150,000.

“Standard tax withholdings are 5% state and 24% federal, so 29% overall,” Thone said. “The winner’s check will be for $106,500.”

Kansas players will have another opportunity to get some cash through the Powerball and make an attempt at getting the overall jackpot prize during the next drawing, the night of Wednesday, Aug. 20. The estimated Powerball jackpot prize sits at $643 million with a cash value of $290.6 million. You can learn more about how to play the Powerball in Kansas by clicking here.
