The Powerball jackpot has climbed to an estimated $1 billion, after no one won the grand prize in Wednesday night’s drawing.

It’s the second billion-dollar Powerball jackpot this year — and the seventh largest prize in the game’s history, according to Powerball.

The next drawing is set for Saturday.
