Powerball drawing

No winner for Saturday's Powerball drawing, jackpot now $900 million

There was no winning ticket for Saturday's Powerball drawing, resulting in the jackpot being increased to $900 million for Monday's drawing. The numbers drawn for the $875 million Powerball on Saturday were 57, 43, 02, 55, 09, with the Powerball number being 18. The substantial prize money follows the lack of a jackpot winner in Wednesday's drawing for $746.3 million.

It's worth noting that the Powerball is not the only lottery jackpot offering an enormous amount this week. The Mega Millions jackpot for Tuesday's drawing has reached $640 million. The previous Powerball win occurred back in April.

Powerball drawings take place every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday. The odds of winning the top Powerball prize are approximately 1 in 292,201,338. Retailers that sell winning Powerball tickets receive a bonus of 1% of the prize amount, and winners have one year from the date of the winning draw to claim their prize.

Powerball tickets cost $2 per play and are available in 45 states, along with the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. It's important to remember that these lottery jackpots are subject to change and may continue to increase until a winning ticket is sold.
