The historic Powerball jackpot rose to a record $500 million on Tuesday and many Berlin residents are expected to purchase a ticket Wednesday — if they haven't already.

According to the official Powerball website, the drawing will be held tonight at 10:59 p.m. In Connecticut, the drawing will be televised live on WTIC-TV/FOX 61.

There has been no Powerball winner since Oct. 6. The chance of winning the $500 million jackpot is 1 in 175,223,510.

Good luck (you'll need it)!

Did you buy a Powerball ticket? Why or why not? Tell us in the comments.
