Powerball Jackpot Hits $1.1 Billion After No Winner on Saturday

The prolonged streak has pushed the prize to the game’s sixth largest, with a potential winner choosing a 30-year annuity or an estimated $503.4 million cash payout before taxes.

Overview

  • No ticket matched all six numbers in Saturday’s drawing of 1, 28, 31, 57, 58 and Powerball 16, though two $2 million tickets were sold in North Carolina and Pennsylvania and multiple $1 million winners were confirmed in several states.
  • The grand prize rose to an estimated $1.1 billion, ranking as the sixth-largest Powerball jackpot after 42 consecutive drawings without a jackpot winner.
  • The next drawing is Monday at 10:59 p.m. ET, with a live stream from the Florida Lottery draw studio in Tallahassee.
  • A winner may select 30 escalating annual payments totaling the advertised amount or a lump-sum cash option estimated at $503.4 million before taxes.
  • The odds of winning the jackpot are about 1 in 292.2 million; tickets cost $2, with an optional $1 Power Play that multiplies non-jackpot prizes.
