Winning Powerball numbers for Monday

COLUMBUS, Ohio ( WCMH ) — Record jackpots in both the Powerball and Mega Millions lotteries put close to $2 billion up for grabs this week.

An $800 million Powerball drawing Monday night will be followed Tuesday by a $1.1 billion Mega Millions.

Monday’s winning Powerball numbers are 07, 11, 19, 53, and 68; the Powerball is 23 and the Power Play multiplier is 2X.

All jackpot winners in both lotteries have the option of receiving a lesser, one-time payment or receiving the full jackpot through annual payments over the next 30 years. Monday’s Powerball is worth an estimated $384.8 million one-time payment.

The top 10 Powerball jackpots in the game’s history are:

1. $2.04 billion – Nov. 7, 2022
2. $1.765 billion – Oct. 11, 2023
3. $1.586 billion – Jan. 13, 2016

9. $754.6 million – Feb. 6, 2023
10. $731.1 million – Jan. 20, 2021

Players must match five balls numbered 1 to 69 plus a Powerball numbered between 1 through 26 in order to win the jackpot.

The odds of winning the Powerball jackpot are 1 in 292.2 million, and those odds never change because they are not calculated based on the number of tickets sold, but rather the odds of picking the five white ball numbers as well as the Powerball. The odds of winning any prize in the drawing is 1 in 24.9.

Mega Millions passes $1 billion

If $800 million isn’t enough, take a chance at a $1.1 billion jackpot with Mega Millions on Tuesday.

Like with Powerball, the odds don’t change as they are not based on the number of tickets sold, but on the chances of picking the right combination of numbers.
