No one across the country bought either a jackpot winning or a second-prize ticket for Wednesday's $280 million drawing.

Two $50,000 tickets matching four numbers and the Powerball were sold for Wednesday's drawing in New Jersey -- one in Neptune and one in Woodstown. Wednesday's winning numbers were 17-19 -21- 22 -51. The Powerball drawn was 19 with a Powerplay of 2X.

Another 43,427 players who bought tickets in New Jersey won smaller prizes ranging from $4 to $200. 

The Powerball jackpot has been climbing since someone bought the winning ticket for the $456.7 million drawing on March 17 at a Manheim, Pennsylvania gas station. Emerald Legacy Trust claimed the cash prize of $273,959,698 and the winner(s) received $200 million after state and federal taxes were deducted.

Two Powerball jackpots were hit earlier in the year. 

A Powerball ticket costs $2. The odds of hitting the jackpot are 292,201,338 to 1. Players have roughly a 1 in 11,688,053 chance to win the second prize of at least $1 million.

Powerball is played in 44 states, Washington D.C, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. 

While no massive Powerball prizes have been won in New Jersey of late, 47-year-old Richard Wahl, of Vernon, bought the only jackpot-winning ticket for the $533 million Mega Millions drawing on March 30. Wahl took the cash option and received about $220.7 million after state and federal taxes were deduced. 

The $533 million jackpot is the single largest lottery win claimed in New Jersey and 10th biggest prize in U.S. lottery history.
