The Powerball jackpot has soared to $44 million for Monday’s drawing, following Saturday’s elusive top prize. Just last Monday, a fortunate player from Pennsylvania walked away with a staggering $213.8 million jackpot, marking the sixth claim on the Powerball’s grand prize this year.
Should someone clinch Monday’s jackpot, they stand to receive an estimated $21.7 million in a lump-sum payment, according to lottery officials.
The much-anticipated numbers were drawn shortly after 11 p.m. ET on Monday, and the results are now in. The winning numbers for Monday night’s Powerball drawing are: 1, 2, 15, 23, 28, with the Powerball number being 10 and a Powerplay multiplier of 2X.
While it’s yet to be confirmed if there is a winner for Monday’s draw, details will be posted once available. For those with eyes on the prize, it’s worth noting that a complete list of past Powerball winners is accessible via the lottery’s website.
For those new to the game, buying a $2 Powerball ticket is straightforward. They are available at local convenience stores, gas stations, and grocery stores. In some states, you can even buy tickets online. Players must select six numbers: five white balls from 1 to 69 and one red Powerball number from 1 to 26. To enhance their non-jackpot winnings, players can opt for an additional $1 “Power Play,” which can multiply winnings by 2X, 3X, 4X, 5X, or 10X. For a quicker option, players can request a “Quick Pick” for computer-generated numbers.
Powerball drawings take place on Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday nights. If no jackpot winner emerges, the prize continues to climb, adding millions with each drawing.
