Powerball player misses $20 million jackpot but wins big in Pennsylvania.
A Powerball ticket sold in Pennsylvania won $150,000, just missing the $20 million jackpot, lottery officials say.
The ticket matched four winning numbers, the Powerball and the Power Play in the drawing Monday, Sept. 8, the Pennsylvania Lottery said.
The lucky ticket was sold online, lottery officials said in an email to McClatchy News.
The winning numbers were 26, 28, 41, 53 and 64 with a Powerball of 9. The Power Play multiplier was 3x.

Nobody won the jackpot, which rises to an estimated $33 million, with a cash value of about $15.2 million, for the next drawing Wednesday, Sept. 10, the national Powerball site said.
Nearly 540,000 other Powerball tickets sold in the United States also won prizes ranging from $4 to $150,000, the lottery said.
The Powerball jackpot was last won Saturday, Sept. 6, when players in Missouri and Texas split the $1.787 billion grand prize.
