The Powerball jackpot has climbed to the fourth-largest in history ahead of Monday night's drawing.
The winning numbers Monday night were: 10, 12, 22, 36, 50 and red Powerball 4 – and the Power Play multiplier was 2X.
According to Powerball officials, the jackpot stands at $793.6 million for the drawing.
The jackpot on Monday is behind only three grand prizes that reached the billion-dollar mark – $2.04 billion in 2022, $1.586 billion in 2016 and $1.08 billion earlier this year on July 19, 2023.
That July 19 drawing was the last time someone won the Powerball jackpot, and there have been 28 consecutive draws without a grand prize winner.
If a player wins the jackpot on Monday night, they will have their choice between a lump-sum payment of nearly $370 million or annual payments worth an estimated $793 million. Both options are before taxes.
