The ticket did not match the Powerball number, meaning it fell just short of the $1.04 billion jackpot, which was won by a single ticket holder in Illinois.
The ticket was sold at an ARCO ampm along Fair Oaks Boulevard in the Arden-Arcade area, just north of the Watt Avenue bridge over the American River. It matched all five of the white-ball numbers, a feat with odds of about 1 in 11.7 million, according to the California Lottery.
The last billion-dollar Powerball jackpot was won in December, when a ticket sold in Arkansas matched all six numbers for a prize worth $1.82 billion.
The Illinois ticket holder can choose between an estimated $450.5 million cash option or an annuity paid out over 29 years, with payments increasing by 5% annually. Both amounts are before taxes.
The identity of the Sacramento-area ticket holder was not immediately available. California Lottery winners have 180 days from the drawing date to claim a Powerball prize.
