The winning Powerball numbers for the estimated $1.423 billion jackpot were revealed on Saturday night. They were 47, 54, 57, 60, and 65, with 19 for the Powerball.
Saturday’s drawing produced no winning, bringing the total jackpot to $1.55 billion. It is now the fourth-largest Powerball jackpot in history.
Since the winning ticket in Los Angeles on July 19 won a $1.08 billion jackpot, there have been no grand prize winners in the Powerball. Since then, Wednesday night’s drawing was the 33rd.
According to Powerball officials, this is the first time in the game’s history that two consecutive jackpots have reached the billion-dollar mark.
