Monday's win was the sixth time the Powerball jackpot has been won this year, according to the lottery. It was last won this year July 3, when a player in Ohio won the $139.3 million jackpot.
The winner will have the choice of an annuitized prize of $213.8 million, or a lump sum payment of $106.4 million, before taxes. If they choose the annuity option, they'll receive one immediate payment followed by 29 annual payments that increase by 5% each year, the lottery says.
After Monday's win, the Powerball jackpot has since reset to $20 million with a cash value of $10 million ahead of Wednesday's drawing.
