After no ticket matched all six numbers in Saturday night’s Powerball drawing, the jackpot surged again — now sitting at an incredible $750 million, the 10th-largest Powerball prize of all time. The cash value of the jackpot is about $338.6 million, before federal and state taxes.
The winning numbers on Saturday were: 10, 20, 29, 44, 53 and Powerball 19, but no one hit the jackpot. While dozens of players won smaller prizes, the big one remains unclaimed, driving excitement ahead of the next draw on Monday night.
The Powerball game has now gone 37 consecutive drawings without a jackpot winner, a streak that began after the last grand prize was claimed in California on May 31. According to the Multi-State Lottery Association, the current jackpot ranks among the largest in U.S. lottery history.
Players can purchase Powerball tickets for $2 per play, and they have the option to add Power Play for $1 more, which multiplies non-jackpot winnings. Tickets are available in 45 states, Washington D.C., Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
Officials remind participants to purchase tickets before the cut-off time, which varies by jurisdiction but typically ends 1–2 hours before the drawing.
Though the odds of hitting the jackpot are steep, the thrill of possibly winning hundreds of millions keeps people coming back. As the Monday drawing approaches, the nation is watching — and dreaming.
