No big winner, Powerball jackpot jumps to $1.09 billion
MIAMI - The Powerball jackpot has climbed after there was no big winner in Monday night's drawing.
The winning numbers drawn were 19-24-40-42-56 and the Powerball number was 23.
For the next drawing on Wednesday, the estimated jackpot is $1.09 billion. It has a cash value of $527.3 million, before taxes.
No one has won Powerball's top prize since New Year's Day, amounting to 38 consecutive drawings without a jackpot winner. That streak without a winner is nearing the record number of 41 consecutive drawings, set twice in 2022 and 2021.
The game's long odds of 1 in 292.2 million make it a rare jackpot.
Last August, a single winning ticket was sold in Neptune, Florida, for a $1.6 billion jackpot, the largest in Mega Millions history, and the third-largest in lottery history. In February 2023, a winning ticket sold near Los Angeles claimed a $2.04 billion Powerball jackpot, the largest in lottery history.
Powerball drawings are Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday nights. Tickets cost two bucks apiece.
