WASHINGTON — Check your tickets: Powerball’s jackpot has climbed to an estimated $875 million for Monday’s drawing, marking the second-largest Powerball prize of 2025 as it inches closer to another possible billion-dollar jackpot. 

Monday’s jackpot still falls nearly a billion dollars below September’s historic $1.8 billion jackpot, which was split by two tickets sold in Missouri and Texas — the second-largest lottery prize in U.S. history.

The current jackpot has been rolling since Sept. 6, when those two winners beat odds of 1 in 292.2 million. Monday’s prize represents the cash value of an annuity paid over 29 years; winners can also choose a lump sum payment, which amounts to $403.6 million before accounting for taxes. 

The largest Powerball jackpot remains $2.04 billion, won by a single ticket in California in November 2022. This year has produced three major Powerball wins: the $1.8 billion September prize, a $526.5 million jackpot claimed in California in March and a $328.5 million prize won in Oregon in January.

The winning numbers for Monday were 8-32-52-56-64 and Powerball 23.

The Powerball drawing takes place live at 10:59 p.m. ET every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday. Tickets cost $2 per play and are sold in 45 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.

The top six largest Powerball wins have all surpassed $1 billion. Powerball lottery games have potentially huge jackpots because they are played in multiple states.
