Even after the 20 million, I would never be able to shake that what if feeling. If only I would have matched one more ball...What a huge difference between one more little ping pong ball. A $320 million dollar difference. Not to say that 20 is not good.

I wonder how high it will have to get until the Match 5 is capped

True. And, can you imagine if it were Mega Millions instead of Powerball? Because the Mega Millions states have a much larger population than the Powerball states, we could easily be talking about a $400 million jackpot.

A small jackpot.....$20 million isn't smallIf there was no caps can you imagine what the jackpot would be. The annuity would be up to $385,000,000 if there was no cap to stop it from growing. That is just insane. hahaBrad

It's doubtful, but maybe the media will make a big deal about the 20 people who each win the equivalent of a $2 million state jackpot. Everyone will most likely be caught up with the $340 million winner, if there is one.

It just keeps getting bigger and bigger. The second prize is basically a small jackpot.

Looks like Powerball has upped estimates again.
