“Big Money” Winning Powerball Ticket Sold In New York
It was another lucky night for lottery players in New York State.
The New York State Lottery announced that one "Big Money" winning ticket was sold in the state from last night's Powerball drawing.
That ticket matched four out of five numbers and also had the Powerball which means it won the 3rd place prize of $50,000.
The New York State Lottery also announced that there were 27 4th-place winning tickets sold in New York. Each one of those tickets won $100.
Monday's winning Powerball numbers were: 1-25-57-62-64 with a Powerball of 15.
There was no grand prize winner from last night's drawing which makes Wednesday's drawing a record-breaking one for New York State. The current jackpot of $478 million dollars would be the largest lottery jackpot ever won by a New York resident if someone from New York were to claim the grand prize.
The current Powerball jackpot is $2 million dollars more than the current lottery jackpot record for New York State. The current record was set back in April 2023 when Johnnie Taylor won the Mega Millions.
