DES MOINES, Iowa (CBSDFW.COM/AP) — Yes, you have to get up and go into work today! No one matched the jackpot-winning numbers in Wednesday night's Powerball drawing.

The winning numbers were: 10-47-50-65-68, Powerball: 24, Power Play: 2

The jackpot has now increased to an estimated $478 million. The prize would rank as the nation's 8th largest.

In 2015, three tickets won a Powerball jackpot of $564.1 million. One of those tickets was sold in the Collin County city of Princeton.

The next Powerball drawing will be Saturday. Nearly three months have passed without a winner of the big prize.

The chance of winning the Powerball is incredibly small, at 292.2 million-to-1. But players have much better odds, of about 1 in 25, of winning smaller prizes ranging from $4 to $1 million.
