WASHINGTON — If you purchased a Powerball ticket for Saturday’s drawing, it might be time to check if you’re the lucky winner of the impressive $820 million jackpot.

The jackpot, with a cash option estimated at $378.2 million, stands as the second-largest Powerball prize of the year. However, it doesn’t quite measure up to the colossal $1.8 billion jackpot split by two tickets in Missouri and Texas just last month, marking the second-highest lottery prize in U.S. history.

The last time the Powerball jackpot was claimed was on September 6, when two fortunate winners beat the staggering odds of 1 in 292.2 million.

Powerball’s record for the largest jackpot remains at $2.04 billion, which was won in California in November 2022. This year has been eventful for Powerball, featuring three significant jackpots: a record-setting $1.787 billion in September, a $526.5 million win in California in March, and a $328.5 million prize claimed in Oregon in January.

The winning numbers for Saturday are 13-14-26-28-44 and Powerball 7 with Power Play 2x. 

The Powerball drawing takes place live at 10:59 p.m. ET every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday. Tickets cost $2 per play and are sold in 45 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.

The top 6 largest Powerball wins have all surpassed $1 billion. Powerball lottery games have potentially huge jackpots because they are played in multiple states.
