Did Anyone Win The Powerball? April 23 Winning Numbers And Monday’s New Jackpot
There was no grand-prize winner in Saturday's Powerball drawing, which had a jackpot of about $409.3 million, with a cash value of $245.1 million. That means the jackpot will continue to grow.
The next drawing will take place Monday, and the jackpot will climb to an estimated $421 million with a $252.1 million cash option.
The winning lottery numbers drawn on Saturday, April 23, were 10, 39, 47, 49, 56 with a red Powerball of 8. The Power Play was 3X.
Though there were no grand prize winners, some players became instant millionaires.
A player in Arizona and another from Florida hit the Match 5 and each won $1 million. If either player would have hit the Match 5 with a Power Play, they would have won $2 million each.
There were also several smaller monetary prizes that resulted from the Saturday night Powerball drawing.
There were 24 players who hit the Match 4 plus red Powerball and won $50,000 each. Meanwhile, five players hit the Match 4 plus red Powerball with a Power Play and won $150,000.
The rest of the winnings from the latest lottery drawing ranged between $4 and $300. A total of 1,255,362 players won prizes from the latest jackpot.
The Powerball jackpot has been hit twice this year. The first win came on the Jan. 5 drawing with a ticket holder from California and another from Wisconsin splitting the $632.6 million jackpot. The win marked the 7th-largest jackpot prize in Powerball history.
The second win happened on the Feb. 14 drawing when a player from Connecticut won the $185.3 million jackpot. Since then, there has been a total of 29 jackpot drawings with no grand prize winner.
Jackpot winners must match the six numbers on their ticket to the drawn six-number combination. Five numbers need to 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.
