Did Anyone Win The Powerball? Aug. 7 Winning Numbers And Wednesday’s New Jackpot
The Powerball drawing on Saturday night did not result in a grand prize winner for the estimated $226 million jackpot. The next drawing will take place on Wednesday, and the jackpot will climb to $241 million with a $175 million cash value.
The winning lottery numbers drawn on Saturday, Aug. 7 were 7, 24, 36, 54, 60 with a red Powerball of 23. The Power Play was 2X.
Along with there being no grand prize winners, the latest drawing also didn’t result in any instant millionaires. There were no winners for the Match 5, which would have resulted in a $1 million prize or a $2 million prize for those who would have hit the Match 5 with a Power Play.
However, there were plenty of smaller monetary prizes following the latest Powerball drawing.
There were 15 Match 4 plus red Powerball players that won $50,000 from the Saturday night jackpot. Meanwhile, only one player hit the Match 4 plus red Powerball with a Power Play, winning $100,000.
The rest of the monetary wins from the night ranged between $4 and $200.
Lottery players who hit the Powerball jackpot have the option of receiving their winnings through a one-time lump-sum payment or an annuity.
Those who select the annuity receive one immediate payment followed by 29 payments. Each payment increases by 5% every year.
Just five states don't sell Powerball tickets: Alabama, Alaska, Hawaii, Nevada, and Utah.
