The New York State Lottery announced that there were two "Big Money" winning Powerball tickets sold in New York from last night's Powerball drawing.

Each one of those tickets matched four out of five numbers and also had the Powerball which means they both won the 3rd place prize of $50,000.

There were also 68 4th and 5th place winning tickets sold in New York. Each one of those tickets won $100.
