OKLAHOMA CITY -- State lottery officials said the two Powerball tickets sold in Oklahoma that are worth $200,000 each were
bought by the same person.
Lottery Commission spokeswoman Beverly Hughes said the two winning tickets in Saturday night's drawing were bought in Tulsa
and are worth $400,000.
Hughes said the same person bought a ticket with the same five numbers, but two different Powerball numbers.
She said the person hasn't come forward yet to claim the prize.
Meanwhile a winning $200,000 ticket sold in Skiatook for the Feb. 26 Powerball drawing remains unclaimed. That ticket was
bought at Mister Bass, Inc.
Winners have 180 days after the drawing to claim their prize.
There was no Powerball winner Saturday, and the jackpot will be worth an estimated $174 million for Wednesday's drawing.
