Powerball winning numbers

The winning numbers for the jackpot, which ballooned to $2.04 billion after updated calculations, were 10, 33, 41, 47 and 56. The red Powerball was 10. If there are any winners, they have yet to be announced.

The Monday night drawing was delayed by a technical difficulty. Lottery officials said the drawing would not be done until all game procedures have been successfully completed.

One of the participating states was unable to process its ticket sales and submit player data before Monday night's drawing, according to a statement from Powerball officials. The results are expected this morning.

It's not the first time the drawing was delayed. Viewers who tuned in on Oct. 19 for the $508 million Powerball drawing were met with an hour delay due to a "technical problem."

According to a statement on Powerball's website, Monday's drawing delay was due to a "participating lottery needing extra time to complete the required security protocols." Before a drawing can occur, Powerball has strict security requirements that must be met by all 48 lotteries, and once those are complete, the drawing is performed under supervision by lottery security officials and independent auditors.

The jackpot is still currently worth a record-breaking $1.9 billion with a cash value of $921.9 million.

Previous reporting: The record-breaking Powerball jackpot continues to climb to historic numbers ahead of the next drawing Monday night, as there have not yet been no grand prize winners.

The jackpot is currently worth an estimated $1.9 billion dollars with a cash value of $921.9 million, making it the highest Powerball jackpot ever. The last record Powerball jackpot was $1.586 billion in January 2016.

How to play the Powerball

The Powerball costs $2 per play.

To play, select five numbers from one to 69 for the white balls, then select one number from one to 26 for the red Powerball.

You can choose your lucky numbers on a play slip or let the lottery terminal randomly pick your numbers.

To win, match one of the 9 Ways to Win:

  • 5 white balls + 1 red Powerball = Grand prize.

  • 5 white balls = $1 million.

  • 4 white balls + 1 red Powerball = $50,000.

  • 4 white balls = $100.

  • 3 white balls + 1 red Powerball = $100.

  • 3 white balls = $7.

  • 2 white balls + 1 red Powerball = $7.

  • 1 white ball + 1 red Powerball = $4.

  • 1 red Powerball = $4.

There's a chance to have your winnings increased two, three, four, five and 10 times through the Power Play for an additional $1 per play. Players can multiply non-jackpot wins up to 10 times when the jackpot is $150 million or less.

All prizes are set cash amounts, except for the Grand Prize. In California, prize payout amounts are pari-mutuel, meaning it's determined by the sales and the number of winners.

What's the biggest Powerball jackpot ever?

Before the current $1.9 billion jackpot smashed records, the previous record Powerball jackpot was $1.586 billion in January 2016. It was divided among three ticket winners in California, Florida and Tennessee.

What are the odds of winning the Powerball?

The odds of winning the Powerball Grand Prize are 1 in 292,201,338. The odds for the lowest prize, $4 for one red Powerball, are 1 in 38.32.

According to Powerball, the overall odds of winning a prize are 1 in 24.87, based on a $2 play and rounded to two decimal places.
