BALTIMORE — Are you feeling lucky?

Wednesday night’s power ball drawing will be the fourth largest in U.S. history. You could be $750-million richer if you win the massive Powerball Jackpot.

Thousands of gas stations, convenience stores, and grocery stores are sure they will see a large turnout by people hoping to buy the winning ticket.

The pot has been growing since last December, but chances of winning are about one in 292-million.

The winner can take that over about 30 years, or the cash payout in one lump sum.

Anyone hoping to turn their Powerball ticket or three-dollar Power Play ticket into $750-million dollars will find out Wednesday night at 11:00 p.m.
