You have another chance to win big on the Powerball.

The jackpot is up to $1.3 billion -- that's a climb from last week's $815 million.

The massive prize now ranks fifth highest in Powerball history.

Remember - it only costs $2 to play! But for an additional dollar, you can utilize the power play feature, which ups your chances. You can multiply non-jackpot prizes by two, three, four or five times.

Nationwide - ten tickets matched all five white balls to win a $1 million prize — including two in New Jersey.

Other $1 million winners were in California, Florida, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Michigan, New York, Pennsylvania, and Virginia, according to Powerball.

The next drawing is on Wednesday night. You can buy your tickets up until 9:59 p.m. on the night of the drawing in New Jersey
