That would be the Powerball big prize, which will be up to $633 million for Monday’s drawing.

The Fantasy 5 midday draw numbers — 4, 8, 14, 15, 28 — showed up on Quick Pick tickets from three places: the Bravo Meat & Fish Supermarket, 18115 NW 27th Ave., in Miami Gardens; a Publix at 11200 S. Military Tr. in unincorporated Palm Beach County (that one was a freebie); and, the Publix at 1720 E. Silver Star Rd. in Ocoee. Each ticket won $19,901.
