Monday's numbers were: 2, 21, 26, 40, 42, and red Powerball 9. The Power Play was 3X.

The next Powerball drawing will be Wednesday at 10:59 p.m. ET.

  10. $672 million (est. Sept. 19, 2023)



If anybody wins the prize Wednesday, they will have to pick in between an annuitized payout over 29 years or a swelling sum, presently valued at $320.5 million.

Powerball tickets are $2 each and sold in 45 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Drawings are held every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday at 10:59 p.m. ET. You have a 1 in 292.2 million opportunity of winning the Powerball jackpot and a 1 in 24.9 opportunity of winning any Powerball reward..

The $1.08 billion prize struck this summertime remains unclaimed, as does the record-setting $1.602 billion Mega Millions jackpot hit in Florida last month.
