The Powerball jackpot reached $268 million with a $1 million ticket sold in New Jersey on January 11, 2025

So, what were the winning numbers? They were 3, 6, 32, 37, and 65, with the Powerball being 4. The Power Play multiplier was 3x, which is pretty cool.
Now, did anyone hit it big? Well, a lucky ticket matching all five white balls worth $1 million was sold in New Jersey. That’s a nice payday!
You might be wondering how many numbers you need to win something in Powerball. Technically, you can win with just the Powerball number, which gives you $4. If you get one white ball and the Powerball, you still get $4. Get two white balls and the Powerball, and you win $7.
If you hit three numbers without the Powerball, you also get $7. But if you add the Powerball to that, you’re looking at $100. And if you get four numbers right, that’s another $100.
Now, if you hit four numbers plus the Powerball, you’re in for $50,000. And if you manage to get all five numbers, that’s a cool $1 million. To win the grand prize, you need all five numbers plus the Powerball.
Powerball drawings happen every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday at 10:59 p.m. ET, so there’s always another chance to win.
Looking back, the Powerball grand prize has been won five times in 2023 alone. Some of the big winners included a $754.6 million ticket sold in Washington and a $1.765 billion ticket sold in California.
So, if you’re feeling lucky, make sure to grab a ticket for the next drawing!
