Powerball jackpot climbs to $975 million after Monday drawing yields no winner
Monday's Powerball drawing did not produce a jackpot winner, pushing the prize to an estimated $975 million, with three tickets winning $2 million and $1 million each.
No ticket matched all six numbers in Monday's Powerball draw, so the jackpot rose to an estimated $975 million. The winning numbers were 6, 54, 64, 55, 37 and the Powerball 10, with a 3-times Power Play multiplier.
Three tickets came close to the top prize. A ticket sold in Tennessee matched five numbers plus the Powerball, earning $2 million. Two other tickets matched five numbers but missed the Powerball, each receiving a $1 million prize; one was sold at a 7-Eleven on Santa Monica Boulevard in Hollywood, and the other in Maryland. The California Lottery reported the California ticket's total payout as $1,478,686.
The next drawing is scheduled for Wednesday, and the eventual jackpot winner could opt for a lump-sum cash payment of roughly $422.4 million.
