Did Anyone Win Saturday’s Powerball? Jan. 8 Winning Numbers And Monday’s Jackpot
The Powerball jackpot on Wednesday was worth $632.6 million and won by two ticket holders. It marked the end of 40 consecutive drawings without a winner.
On Saturday night, the Powerball drawing did not have a grand prize winner for a jackpot worth significantly less -- an estimated $20 million with a cash value of $14.2 million.
The winning lottery numbers drawn on Saturday were 20, 21, 36, 60, 65. The Powerball number was 13 with a Power Play of 10X.
The latest jackpot went unclaimed, which means the next drawing will take happen on Monday night, with the jackpot climbing to an estimated $27 million with a cash option of $18.7 million.
Along with there being no grand prize winner, there were also no instant millionaires that resulted from the night. If a player would have hit the Match 5, they would have won $1 million.
However, if the player would have hit the Match 5 with the 10X Power Play purchase, their winnings for the night would have been $2 million.
Despite the lack of millionaires from the night, several players managed to snag smaller monetary prizes from the latest drawing. Eight players matched the four white-ball numbers and the red Powerball, winning $50,000.
Meanwhile, four players hit the Match 4 plus the red Powerball, winning $500,000 due to a Power Play purchase. The rest of the prizes from the night ranged between $4 and $1,000.
Wednesday's Powerball drawing had a winner from California and a winner from Wisconsin who will split the $632 million grand prize.
To become a jackpot winner, 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.
