If you need some extra holiday cash, playing the Powerball lottery could be just the ticket.

After no winners matched all the numbers in Saturday's drawing, a record estimated $500 million jackpot is up for grabs on Wednesday. The jackpot rolled over for a 15th straight time when no one matched the six numbers in the multi-state lottery game. Powerball's largest payout to date was $365 million in 2006 to eight co-workers at a Nebraska meat-packing plant.
