Powerball Jackpot Climbs to $538 Million for Monday 12 October

No one won the Powerball jackpot on Saturday, 10 October, so Monday's prize rises to an estimated US$538 million, with a cash value of US$220.6 million. See Saturday's numbers, the US$1 million winner from California, how the jackpot grew from US$22 million in 26 drawings, and the drawing time in UTC.

The Powerball jackpot rolls over once more. Nobody matched all six numbers on Saturday, so the estimated prize for Monday, 12 October 2026 climbs to US$538 million, with a cash value of US$220.6 million. Monday's drawing is the 26th since the jackpot was last won, and the prize has grown from a US$22 million starting point in just eight weeks.

Saturday's Powerball Numbers: 1, 4, 19, 33, 51 and Powerball 15

The drawing on Saturday, 10 October 2026 produced the white balls 1, 4, 19, 33 and 51 and the red Powerball 15, with a 2x Power Play. By drawing time, the jackpot estimate had been raised to US$519 million, with a cash value of US$212.9 million, but no ticket hit it.

One ticket sold in California matched all five white balls and won US$1 million. Nobody claimed the US$2 million Match 5 prize with Power Play. Another 22 tickets matched four white balls and the Powerball: 18 won US$50,000 and four with Power Play won US$100,000. All prize tiers are listed in the latest Powerball results, and our preview of Saturday's drawing covers the run up to that point.

From US$22 Million to US$538 Million: Every US$100 Million Milestone

The jackpot restarted on 15 August after a ticket from Illinois won US$1.04 billion on 12 August. Since then, it has grown roughly 24-fold. Each table row shows the first drawing at which the official estimate passed another US$100 million:

The first US$100 million took six drawings after the reset. Each of the last two US$100 million steps took four, because ticket sales grow as the jackpot gets bigger. Saturday alone added US$34 million to the advertised prize.

What the US$538 Million Powerball Jackpot Is Worth in Cash

A winner on Monday can take the annuity, paid in 30 graduated payments over 29 years, or a lump sum estimated at US$220.6 million. That is about 41% of the headline amount and US$7.7 million more than the cash value on Saturday. Both options are subject to federal and state taxes.

Odds of Winning the Powerball Jackpot

The odds of matching five white balls and the Powerball are 1 in 292,201,338 for every line, whatever the jackpot size. The odds of winning any of the nine prizes are about 1 in 24.9. Even a US$538 million jackpot is far below the record US$2.04 billion, won in California on 7 November 2022, as our list of the biggest Powerball jackpots in history shows.
