The Powerball jackpot continues to rise with an estimated jackpot of $672 million.

If someone matches all six balls in Wednesday night's drawing, the winner would take home the grand prize, which currently has a cash option of $320.5 million. According to lottery officials, Wednesday's estimated jackpot is the game's 10th largest prize in Powerball history and the game's third-largest jackpot of 2023.

Monday's winning numbers were 2, 21, 26, 40 and 42 and the Powerball was 9. The Power Play was 3X.

While no one won the grand prize on Monday, one ticket - sold in Massachusetts - matched all five white balls to win $1 million, according to lottery officials.

Powerball drawings are held each Monday, Wednesday and Saturday at 10:59 p.m. EST. Drawings can be viewed live at powerball.com/watch-drawing.

The Powerball jackpot was last hit in the July 19, 2023 drawing, when a ticket in California matched all five white balls and the red Powerball to win a grand prize worth $1.08 billion. Since then, there have been 26 consecutive drawings without a jackpot winner, according to lottery officials.

How to play Powerball

Choose five numbers 1 to 69 and one number 1 to 26 to be your Powerball. To win the Powerball jackpot, match the six numbers on your ticket to the drawn six-number combination (five numbers plus the Powerball).

The odds of winning the jackpot prize are 1 in 292.2 million.
