The Powerball drawing held on Wednesday, October 28, 2026, produced no jackpot winner, so the top prize will keep climbing into the weekend. The jackpot is now estimated at $760 million, with a cash value of $326 million, ahead of the next drawing on Saturday, October 31.

Wednesday's jackpot had been advertised at $723 million, with an estimated cash value of $310.2 million. The winning numbers were 11, 13, 16, 47 and 60, with a red Powerball of 13. The Power Play multiplier was 2x. To take the jackpot, a player must match five white numbers drawn from 1 to 69 and the Powerball drawn from 1 to 26.

Nobody matched all five white numbers either. That tier normally pays $1 million, or $2 million when the optional Power Play feature is active. The drawing did, however, yield seventeen winners who matched four white numbers and the Powerball. Fourteen of them received $50,000 each, while the other three won $100,000 each thanks to Power Play.

Recent drawings have also produced notable prizes below the jackpot level. On October 26, two players matched all five white numbers, one in Florida and one in Georgia. Neither had added Power Play, so each received $1 million. The drawing before that had no Match 5 winners but awarded about 30 third-tier prizes of up to $100,000.

The October 21 drawing produced several larger wins as well. A player in New Jersey won $1 million, while players in Ohio and Pennsylvania took home $2 million each. With the jackpot still unclaimed, Saturday's drawing will be the next opportunity for the top prize to be won.
