The Powerball jackpot of $303 million had a cash value of $132.8 million after no winner was announced for Monday’s drawing. However, the winning numbers for Saturday, Jan. 18, 2025, were revealed.
For Saturday’s drawing, the five white balls were 14, 31, 35, 64, and 69, with the Powerball being 23. A ticket matching all five white balls and the Power Play multiplier worth $2 million was sold in Michigan.
While it is possible to win a prize by matching just one number, hitting the Powerball alone pays only $4. Players can win up to $1 million if they match all five numbers and the Powerball.
The next Powerball drawing will take place on Monday at 10:59 p.m. ET, followed by Wednesday and Saturday draws as scheduled. A record-breaking $252.6 million ticket was claimed anonymously in Summit County, but the winner remains unidentified.
Historically, the largest Powerball jackpots were won in California, with the top five all-time wins being:
– $2.04 billion on Nov. 7, 2022
– $1.765 billion on Oct. 11, 2023
– $1.586 billion on Jan. 13, 2016
– $1.326 billion on April 6, 2024
– $1.08 billion on July 19, 2023
