Powerball's $793 Million Drawing Is Monday Night in Tallahassee, and Florida Is Still Looking for a Winner
Nobody matched all six numbers on Saturday, so the Powerball jackpot rolled to an estimated $793 million for Monday night's drawing - which, as always, is broadcast from the Florida Lottery's own studio in Tallahassee.
Florida hosts the drawing, and Florida is still waiting on the winner. Powerball's jackpot for Monday night stands at an estimated $793 million, with a cash option of $339.9 million, after Saturday's drawing - 2, 4, 18, 50 and 56, with Powerball 20 and a 3x Power Play - produced no ticket matching all six numbers. The roll was this station's Saturday file; Monday night's drawing is the next chapter, and it is drawn, as every Powerball drawing is, at the Florida Lottery's studio in Tallahassee.
The run has been building for weeks without a jackpot winner, which is how a prize pool reaches the largest tier the game produces: each rollover adds tens of millions, and the Monday drawing now sits among the biggest in Powerball's history. Tickets sold across Tampa Bay on Monday are part of the same pool as tickets sold in the other 44 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands where the game is played.
This desk will report Monday night's numbers - and whether the $793 million found an owner or rolls again toward Wednesday - in its next cycle, verified against the official results the same way Saturday's numbers were. Until the balls drop in Tallahassee, there are no winning numbers to report, and any list circulating before the drawing is not one.
