The Powerball jackpot for Monday, October 26, 2026, is estimated at $687 million after no ticket matched all six numbers in Saturday’s drawing. The drawing is scheduled for 10:59 p.m. Eastern time.

Key Takeaways

  • The estimated cash option is $294.7 million, before federal and applicable state or local taxes.
  • The October 24 numbers were 4, 5, 15, 19 and 55, with a red Powerball of 19.
  • A standard ticket costs $2, and the odds of winning the jackpot are approximately 1 in 292.2 million.

Powerball jackpot and previous results

A jackpot winner can choose the advertised prize as an annuity or take the estimated one-time cash payment. Both amounts are quoted before taxes.

The jackpot has rolled over since a single ticket sold in Illinois won $1.04 billion on August 12, 2026. No ticket has matched all six numbers in the drawings since then.

Saturday’s Power Play multiplier was 2X. There were no jackpot winners, no Match 5 winners with Power Play and no $1 million Match 5 winners. Saturday’s numbers are not the results for Monday’s drawing.

Ticket costs and drawing deadline

Players choose five white-ball numbers from 1 to 69 and one red Powerball number from 1 to 26. They can select the numbers themselves or use Quick Pick. Winning the jackpot requires matching all five white balls and the red Powerball.

Power Play costs an additional $1 and can multiply eligible non-jackpot prizes. Ticket sales generally close one to two hours before a drawing, but players should check the exact cutoff with their local lottery.

Next milestone

The next regularly scheduled drawing after Monday is Wednesday, October 28, at 10:59 p.m. Eastern time.
