NEW YORK (WABC) — The Powerball jackpot has reached a staggering $1.1 billion for Monday’s drawing.
Monday’s jackpot ranks as the sixth-largest in Powerball history and the second over one billion dollars this year.
Saturday’s numbers were: 1-28-31-57-58 Powerball: 16
Although there was no jackpot winner, seven tickets won cash prizes worth $1 million or more on Saturday. Five tickets, sold in California, Florida, Michigan, New Jersey, and Virginia, matched all five white balls to win $1 million prizes.
Powerball drawings are streamed live every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday at 10:59 p.m. ET here on ABC 7 New York.
Monday’s Powerball drawing will be the 43rd in the current jackpot run, setting a game record for most consecutive drawings in a single jackpot cycle.
The Powerball jackpot was last won on Sept. 6 by two tickets in Missouri and Texas that split a $1.787 billion prize.
If a player wins Monday’s jackpot, they will have the choice between an annuitized prize estimated at $1.1 billion or a lump sum payment estimated at $503.4 million.
The odds of winning are 1 in over 292 million, according to Powerball.
Powerball tickets are $2 per play. Tickets are sold in 45 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. More than half of all proceeds from the sale of a Powerball ticket remain in the jurisdiction where the ticket was sold. Since its first drawing in 1992, the Powerball game has helped generate more than $36 billion for good causes supported by U.S. lotteries.

The New York Lottery continues to be North America’s largest and most profitable Lottery, contributing $3.7 billion in Lottery Aid to Education for FY2022-2023 to help support education in New York State.
New York Lottery revenue is distributed to local school districts by the same statutory formula used to distribute other state aid to education. It takes into account both a school district’s size and its income level; larger, lower-income school districts receive proportionately larger shares of Lottery school funding.
