Did Anyone Win Saturday’s Powerball? Dec. 11 Winning Numbers And Monday’s Jackpot
There was no grand prize or second-place prizes following Saturday night's Powerball drawing. The jackpot was an estimated $307 million with a cash value of $224.7 million.
The winning lottery numbers drawn for Dec. 11 were 3, 25, 44, 53, 64. The Powerball pull was 9, and the Power Play was 2X.
Since the latest jackpot went unclaimed, Monday night's jackpot will climb to an estimated $320 million with a cash payout of $232.1 million. There has not been a grand-prize winner since early October, when a California man won a nearly $700 million jackpot.
Although there was no grand prize lottery winner following Saturday night's drawing, one player managed to become an instant millionaire.
A player from Michigan hit the Match 5 and won a $1 million prize. If the player would have hit the Match 5 with the 2X Power Play purchase, they would have won $2 million.
Several other players walked away with smaller monetary prizes. Fifteen players matched four of the white ball numbers and the red Powerball, which put their winnings for the night at $50,000.
Meanwhile, four players hit the Match 4 and the red Powerball, winning $100,000 due to a Power Play purchase. The rest of the prizes from the night ranged between $4 and $200.
To win the jackpot, a player 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.
The Powerball costs $2 per play. The odds of winning the Powerball jackpot are 1 in 292.2 million.
