Sun Aug 03 05:00:00 UTC 2025: **Powerball Jackpot Soars to $410 Million After No Winner in Wednesday’s Drawing**
[City, State] – Lottery fever is sweeping the nation as the Powerball jackpot continues to climb, now reaching an estimated $410 million with a cash option of $186.2 million. This comes after no ticket matched all six numbers in Wednesday night’s drawing. The winning numbers for the Saturday, August 2, 2025 drawing were 6, 18, 34, 35, 36, and the Powerball was 2. The Power Play was 2X.
The next chance to win the life-changing sum will be in Saturday’s drawing, held at approximately 10:59 p.m. ET. Tickets cost $2 each, with the option to add Power Play for an additional $1, which can multiply non-jackpot winnings. Players can also add Double Play for another $1, giving them a second chance at winning $10 million.
While the grand prize remains elusive, players are reminded that even matching a single number – the Powerball – wins a $4 prize. A ticket matching one of the five numbers and the Powerball is also worth $4. A complete prize chart is available at powerball.com.
Meanwhile, the Mega Millions jackpot is also on the rise, sitting at an estimated $150 million with a cash option of $67.9 million for Tuesday’s drawing after no one matched all six numbers to win the jackpot. Friday night’s winning Mega Millions numbers were 18, 27, 29, 33, 70, and the Mega Ball was 22.
