Did Anyone Win The Powerball? March 26 Winning Numbers And Monday’s New Jackpot
Saturday's Powerball drawing did not produce a grand prize winner for the estimated $187 million jackpot with a cash option of $118.4 million. The next drawing is Monday, with the jackpot climbing to an estimated $195 million, with a cash option of $123.4 million.
The winning lottery numbers drawn on Saturday night were 2, 10, 50, 59, 61, with a red Powerball pull of 6. The PowerPlay was 3X.
The jackpot was originally estimated to be $181 million, but a spike in sales pushed it to $187 million.
While there wasn’t a grand-prize winner on Saturday, there was one instant millionaire. A player in Colorado hit the Match 5 and won $1 million. If the player would have matched the five numbers with the 3X Power Play, they would have won $2 million.
Several smaller monetary prizes also resulted from the Saturday Powerball drawing. There were 12 players who hit the Match 4 plus red Powerball and won $50,000 each.
Meanwhile, there were two players who ended up matching four numbers plus the red Powerball with a 3X Power Play, winning $150,000.
The other monetary wins from the latest lottery drawing ranged between $4 and $300. A total of 618,801 players won prizes from the Saturday night jackpot.
The latest drawing comes after a player from Pennsylvania hit the Match 5 from the Wednesday night jackpot. The $1 million winning ticket was purchased in York County at the Turkey Hill in Hanover.
To become a jackpot winner, players must 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.
