Saturday night's Powerball draw may not have produced a jackpot winner, but there's cause for celebration among the ticket holders of smaller prizes. One lucky ticket in Delaware will award $50,000, while one ticket in New Jersey and another in Wisconsin will payout $1 million each to their holders.

A ticket in Delaware matched four of those numbers plus the red Powerball, making it one of the 35 tickets to win the $50,000 prize. Eleven tickets included the Power Play feature, tripling the $50,000 prize to a total of $150,000.

These prizes were dwarfed by the potential of winning Saturday's estimated jackpot of $520 million, or its $260.7 million cash option.
