The Powerball jackpot has risen to an estimated $835 million after there were no winners in Monday night’s grand prize drawing.
Monday’s drawing produced more than 1.2 million winning tickets, according to the Powerball website, but none matched all six numbers: white balls 10, 12, 22, 36, 50 and red Powerball 4, with a Power Play multiplier of 2x.
Three tickets in Florida and one ticket in Oregon matched all five white balls to win $1 million prizes, while six tickets won $100,000 prizes and 32 tickets won $50,000 prizes, according to Powerball.
The estimated $835 million prize up for grabs in Wednesday night’s drawing is the fourth largest Powerball jackpot in history. There have been 29 drawings without a winner since a $1.08 billion jackpot was won on July 19, the third largest Powerball jackpot. The largest was $2.04 billion won on Nov. 7, 2022.
The current $835 million jackpot has a cash value of $390.4 million, according to the Powerball website. The odds of winning the jackpot are 1 in 292.2 million, but the odds of winning any prize are 1 in 24.9. Wednesday’s drawing will be broadcast at 10:59 p.m. EST from the Florida Lottery draw studio in Tallahassee, Fla.
