(NEXSTAR) — Are you a winner? Saturday’s Powerball jackpot is a massive $935 million — the fifth largest prize in the game’s history. Winning numbers for the jackpot are: 33, 13, 50, 12 and 52. The Powerball number is 23. Saturday’s Power Play is 3X.

The jackpot has continued ballooning after months of no one matching all six numbers for the top prize. Saturday’s Powerball drawing comes off the heels of one New Jersey resident winning the Mega Millions $1.128 billion jackpot on Tuesday.

Jackpot winners can receive the prize as an annuity (30 graduated payments over 29 years) or as a lump sum. According to Powerball, the jackpot has a cash value of $452.3 million. Under the annuity plan, winners will receive an immediate payment and then 29 annual payments that rise by 5% each year until finally reaching the total amount.

Officials urge anyone lucky enough to win a Powerball jackpot to consult a financial adviser — while keeping that valuable ticket safe — before showing up at a lottery office for an oversized check.
