Powerball winning numbers, Monday, July 10, 2023, $725 million jackpot

Will a $2 ticket make you a multimillionaire?

The Powerball jackpot is now a Top 10 all-time grand prize. And it will continue to climb the charts − unless, of course, there's a lucky winner.

Powerball players have a 1 in 292.2 million chance to match all five numbers plus the Powerball (more about odds below).

The Saturday, July 8, drawing for $615 million rocketed into the 10 spot in all-time Powerball jackpots with a late surge in the estimated grand prize. Since no one matched all six numbers, the jackpot rolled over to a cool $675 million.

Monday, July 10, numbers: 2-24-34-53-58 and the Powerball was 13. Power Play was 2x.

No one matched all six numbers, so there was another rollover. As of July 11, the jackpot climbed to $725 million. The next chance to win is 11 p.m. ET Wednesday, July 12.

In case you're wondering, the Powerball winning numbers for Saturday, July 8, were 7-23-24-32-43 and Powerball was 18. Power Play was 2x. No one won the jackpot, but there were three lucky million-dollar-winning tickets, one each from Illinois, Colorado and California.
