No lucky ticket holders claimed the staggering $520 million Powerball jackpot during Saturday’s draw, leaving players across the nation eagerly awaiting the next opportunity for a big win. However, two fortunate residents in New Jersey and Wisconsin each managed to bag $1 million thanks to their ticket purchases.
The winning numbers for Saturday’s jackpot were 3, 9, 10, 20, and 62, with a Powerball of 25, all accompanied by a 3X Power Play. Despite no one matching all the numbers, the anticipation continues to build as the upcoming draw on Monday night now offers an astounding $543 million jackpot.
The last time the Powerball jackpot was hit dates back to October 11, when a ticket holder in California won an unprecedented $1.765 billion. Since then, 27 drawings have taken place without a top prize winner, intensifying the excitement for the elusive jackpot.
The odds of hitting the Powerball jackpot are an astonishing 292,201,388 to 1, making it a truly challenging feat. However, players still have enticing opportunities to claim considerable prizes. With a mere $2 ticket, there is a 1 in 11,688,053 chance to match five numbers and secure at least $1 million. Meanwhile, odds of 913,129 to 1 provide hopefuls with a chance to win a third prize of at least $50,000.
Powerball enthusiasts should mark their calendars, as drawings take place on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays in various states and territories.
