Thu Mar 27 03:50:00 UTC 2025: **Powerball Jackpot Soars to $484 Million**

**New York, NY** – The Powerball jackpot has climbed to a staggering $484 million for Wednesday’s drawing, following Monday’s drawing which yielded no jackpot winner. This comes just one day after a lucky player won the Mega Millions jackpot. Wednesday’s winner can choose between the $484 million annuity or a lump-sum cash payment of $228.1 million.

Two players, one in Florida and one in New Jersey, each won $2 million in Monday’s drawing. The last Powerball jackpot winner was on January 18th, taking home $328.5 million.

The winning numbers for Wednesday’s drawing were 5, 20, 29, 39, and 53, with a Powerball of 6. The next drawing will be held this Saturday.

Powerball tickets cost $2 and can be purchased at various retail locations, including convenience stores, gas stations, and grocery stores. Online ticket purchases are available in select states through Jackpocket, the official digital lottery courier of the USA TODAY Network. Players can choose their numbers or opt for a “Quick Pick” for computer-generated selections. Adding a $1 “Power Play” can multiply non-jackpot winnings.

To win the jackpot, players must match all five white balls and the red Powerball. Drawings are held Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday nights. If no one wins the jackpot, the prize money continues to increase for the next drawing. Remember to play responsibly.
