Doug Engle Wins Big Prize in the Nov. 14 Powerball® Drawing

DES MOINES, Iowa – A Colfax man has claimed a $10,000 prize he won in the Nov. 14 Powerball drawing.

Doug Engle claimed his prize Friday at the Iowa Lottery's headquarters in Des Moines. He bought his winning Powerball ticket at Kum & Go, 1200 N. Walnut in Colfax.

The winning numbers on Nov. 14 were 19-30-32-48-57 and Powerball 14. The Power Play multiplier was five. Engle matched four of the first five numbers drawn and the Powerball to win a $10,000 prize. Had he added the Power Play® to his ticket, Engle would have multiplied his $10,000 win by five to win a total of $50,000.

Players can increase their prizes with the Power Play (except the jackpot) up to five times. The cost is $1 per play. The Power Play number, 2 through 5, is chosen at the beginning of the drawing indicating the amount prizes (except the jackpot) will be multiplied if that number is drawn.

For players who choose the Power Play and match five white balls (regularly a $200,000 prize), the multiplier will always be 5, so those players would win an instant $1 million.
