The Powerball jackpot has surged to an impressive $133 million for the upcoming drawing on Saturday, February 8, 2025, following a Wednesday night draw without any winners. For those lucky enough to match all six numbers, a one-time cash option of $61.7 million is available. The previous draw saw no major wins, with no tickets claiming the jackpot, the $2 million Match 5 Power Play prize, or the $1 million Match 5 prize. Notably, a player in Oregon celebrated the first Powerball jackpot win of 2025 with a staggering $328.5 million on January 18, according to lottery officials. Winning numbers for Saturday's drawing, scheduled for just after 11 p.m. ET, are as follows: 23, 44, 57, 60, 62 with Powerball 9 and Powerplay 2x. Sponsored by Jackpocket, the official digital lottery courier of the USA TODAY Network, players can find full details of past winners by visiting the lottery's website. As the next drawing approaches on Monday, February 10, individuals interested in participating can purchase their tickets for $2 at various locations including convenience stores and gas stations. Some states also allow online ticket purchases. Players must select six numbers: five white balls ranging from 1 to 69 and one red Powerball from 1 to 26. Those who wish to boost their chances of winning non-jackpot prizes can add a Power Play for an additional $1, which can multiply winnings by up to 10 times. The Quick Pick option is perfect for those who prefer computer-generated numbers. Powerball drawings occur three times a week: on Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday evenings. If there are no jackpot winners, the cash prize continues to increase, promoting the excitement surrounding the lottery. Tickets can also be acquired online through the Jackpocket app, available in multiple U.S. states and territories. The app allows players to choose their numbers, track their tickets, and claim winnings effortlessly. Gannett, the parent company, may receive benefits for audience referrals to Jackpocket services.
