Did you just win $310 million?

The lucky person in possession of a Powerball lottery ticket containing the numbers 21, 39, 40, 55, 59 and Powerball of 17 just became a whole lot richer.

Wednesday's jackpot was worth an estimated $310 million, MLive reported. It was the second largest Powerball jackpot prize offered this year.

The winning ticket was sold at a Shell gas station in Three Rivers, Michigan. Lottery spokesman Jeff Holyfield told The Associated Press that the winner hasn't come forward yet.

If your ticket contained the winning numbers, and you opt to take the cash in one lump sum, prepare to pocket about $191.4 million, after taxes.

Powerball is played in 43 states, the District of Columbia and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Drawings take place every Wednesday and Saturday, and the odds of winning the jackpot are 1 in about 175 million.
