A lucky winner in Illinois took home a Powerball jackpot of over one billion dollars, a lottery quite similar to the Italian Superenalotto. This is the highest jackpot of the year and the eighth in the history of the lottery. The winner can claim the prize through a lump sum, in which case about 450 million dollars will end up in their pocket, or with annual payments over the next 29 years. The last jackpot was won on May 2nd, after 44 draws before the win in Illinois. For the first time, players from the United Kingdom were allowed to participate in Powerball. Previously, the lottery was reserved only for residents of the United States.
