They said on radio that at least one ticket is worth $800k, something about the grand prize being capped at 340 mil, so all the extra gets kicked to the 2nd place winners. Thought one of them was sold in Salem NH.
a couple weeks back one of the stores I deliver to in Pelham NH sold a 200k winner
The jackpot doesn't get capped, after it hits a certain level it will only increase in $20 million increments and any amount over that is what gets put into the pool for the second place prize. So, if 3 2nd place winning tickets were sold then yes, each on e would be worth approx. $250K each.

Still a nice chunk of change

I believe the winner in NH is a NH senitor.
