"For the 46th consecutive drawing, no one matched all six numbers of the Powerball lottery on Monday, although several new millionaires were created, game officials announced. Nationwide, nine different tickets matched five of the six winning numbers, missing only the red "Powerball" number. Each ticket is worth $1 million before taxes. The winning numbers in Monday's drawing were 3, 18, 36, 41, 54 and red Powerball 7."
"Wednesday's drawing will be the 47th Powerball drawing in a row looking for a jackpot winner, a record, game officials said. It will also be the fourth highest jackpot in U.S. lottery history. The three largest jackpots were also from Powerball. They were: $1.765 billion in October 2023 - sold in California $1.787 billion in September 2025 - sold in Texas $2.04 billion in November 2022 - sold in California"
No one matched all six Powerball numbers for the 46th consecutive drawing. Nine tickets matched five of six numbers, each worth $1 million before taxes, sold in Florida, Georgia, Illinois, New York (two tickets), Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee and Wisconsin. The winning numbers were 3, 18, 36, 41, 54 and red Powerball 7. The jackpot will grow to an estimated $1.7 billion, with the next drawing scheduled for Christmas Eve. Matt Strawn said the growing jackpot inspires excitement, joy and goodwill. The upcoming drawing will be the 47th in a row without a jackpot winner and the fourth-largest U.S. lottery jackpot. The game is played in 45 states plus Washington D.C., Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The odds of winning are 1 in 292.2 million.
