The moment you all have been waiting for. The winning Powerball numbers for the record-breaking $1,600,000,000 jackpot have been announced.
The winning Powerball numbers for Saturday, November 5th are 28, 45, 53, 56, and 69 with the red Powerball 20. The multiplayer is 3X .
Saturday’s drawing is the 40th Powerball drawing since the jackpot was last won on August 3 in Pennsylvania.
If no one wins the jackpot in Saturday’s drawing, it will tie the game record for the number of consecutive drawings without a grand prize winner. The longest jackpot run in Powerball history ended on Oct. 4, 2021, when a ticket in California won a $699.8 million jackpot on the 41st drawing.
“This Powerball game is delivering exactly what our players want,” said Drew Svitko, Powerball Product Group Chair and Pennsylvania Lottery Executive Director. “We are witnessing history in the making with this $1.6 billion jackpot! What’s also exciting is that this run has already created millions of winners, including nearly 100 players who have won prizes worth $1 million or more.”
Jackpot winners may choose to receive their prize as an annuity, paid in 30 graduated payments over 29 years, or a lump sum payment. Both advertised prize options are prior to federal and jurisdictional taxes. The overall odds of winning a prize are 1 in 24.9. The odds of winning the jackpot are 1 in 292.2 million.
