Powerball jackpot climbs to $672M ahead of Wednesday night’s drawing

September 19, 2023

The Powerball jackpot continues to rise after no player claimed to have a ticket matching all six numbers following Monday night’s drawing.

The grand prize, which is the 10th largest in the game’s history, now sits at an estimated $672 million with a one-time cash payout of approximately $320.5 million. There is a 1 in 292.2 million chance of winning the grand prize, according to the game. 

The winning numbers drawn Monday night were 2, 21, 26, 40, 42 with a red Powerball number of 9. The Power Play option was 3X.

One ticket sold in Massachusetts matched all five white balls to win the game’s second-tier prize of $1 million.

TWO LOTTERY TICKETS WORTH A COMBINED $2.6 BILLION UNCLAIMED

The biggest Powerball jackpot of 2023 – and the third-largest in the game’s history – was won in July by a lucky player in California, who snagged the $1.08 billion prize, the lottery said.
