There were no tickets sold with all six numbers in Monday evening’s drawing of the multi-state Powerball lottery and the estimated jackpot for Wednesday’s drawing is expected to grow to $91 million.

One ticket with five numbers, but missing the Powerball number, was sold in New York and is worth $1 million, the Multi-State Lottery Association, which conducts the game, announced.

The numbers drawn Monday were 11, 29, 30, 47, 53 and the Powerball number was 16. The jackpot was $82 million.

The drawing was the eighth since a ticket with all six numbers was sold.
