Did Anyone Win The Powerball? April 16 Winning Numbers And Monday’s New Jackpot
The Powerball drawing Saturday did not produce a grand-prize winner for the $337.7 million jackpot. However, several people were able to snag smaller monetary prizes from the weekend drawing.
The winning lottery numbers drawn on April 16 were 15, 21, 32, 62, 65, with a red Powerball of 26. The Power Play was 5X.
Although no one hit the jackpot, which had a cash value of $203.3 million, one player was still able to become an instant millionaire.
A player from Illinois hit the Match 5 and won a $1 million prize. If the player would have hit the Match 5 along with a Power Play purchase, they would have won $2 million.
Other people were also lucky enough to snag six-figure prizes. In the latest jackpot drawing, four people hit the Match 4 plus red Powerball with a Power Play, winning $250,000 apiece. Meanwhile, there were 22 Match 4 plus red Powerball winners who won $50,000 each.
Other players won prizes between $4 to $500 following the drawing. A total of 886,136 players won prizes from the latest jackpot game.
Since there were no grand prize winners from the Saturday night drawing, the jackpot has now grown to $348 million with a cash value of $209.5 million. The next lottery drawing will take place on Monday evening.
The latest Powerball game comes after a woman in Michigan claimed a $100,000 prize after matching four numbers plus the red Powerball with a Power Play in the March 19 drawing.
Christina Newman purchased the winning ticket at the Marathon gas station in Lowell. The 61-year-old woman plans to use the prize money to take a trip to Hawaii with her husband and save the remainder.
Jackpot winners need to match the six numbers on their ticket to the drawn six-number combination. Five numbers must be selected from 1 to 69 for the white balls, and a number is selected from 1 to 26 for the red Powerball.
There is a 1 in 292.2 million chance of winning the Powerball jackpot.
