Are you Powerball’s jackpot winner? It’s time to check your tickets.

The winning numbers for Wednesday night’s drawing were 22, 11, 60, 2, 35, and the Powerball is 23. The Power Play was 2X.

Wednesday’s Powerball jackpot climbed to an estimated $1.2 billion after none of the tickets sold matched all six of the winning numbers drawn on Monday. The prize is the fourth-largest in U.S. history. If no one wins Wednesday night, the jackpot could become the largest ever, topping a $1.586 billion Powerball prize won by three ticket holders in 2016. 

While winners can receive their winnings through an annual payment plan over 29 years, most grand jackpot winners opt to take the prize in cash — which for Wednesday night’s drawing will be an estimated $596 million.

The biggest prize was a $1.586 billion Powerball jackpot won by three ticket holders in 2016.

No one has won with all six numbers since August 2022 and there have been 38 consecutive drawings since then. The odds of winning the jackpot are 1 in 292.2 million, according to Powerball.

Powerball is played in 45 states, and in Washington, D.C., Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands.

How much is the payout for Powerball?

Grand prize winners can opt for a lump sum of cash or can opt into an annuity.

The payout in cash is valued at $596.7 million, according to Powerball’s live calculator. However, if the winner opts for annual payments, the $1.2 billion jackpot is paid out in 30 graduated payments over the next 29 years. The payments have an annual increase of 5%.
