Two Powerball tickets are worth $20,000 each after they matched four white balls and the Powerball in Saturday’s drawing. The two tickets were Power Played and since the Power Play multiplier was two, their $10,000 prize was doubled. One ticket was purchased at the Circle K at 2400 Spring Forest Road in Raleigh and the other was purchased at the Scotchman #21 at 2092 Old Stage Road in Riegelwood (Columbus County).

A total of 36,530 North Carolina Powerball players won prizes in the Saturday, Feb. 27 drawing ranging from $3 to $20,000 for a total payout in prizes worth $237,365.
