There are no reported winners of the jackpot. Meanwhile, one lucky winner of the second prize worth $1 million has been announced, matching five white balls drawn. Also, only one winner has won third prize, which is $50,000, while none won with a Power Play purchase. The winner matched four of the white ball numbers and the red Powerball. A lot of smaller prizes have been won, 110 players who matched four white ball numbers, which put their winnings at $100, while 53 people with Power Play won $200.

The next Powerball draw will be on Jan. 19 with an estimated grand prize of $62 million with a cash value of $43.3 million.

To get a chance to win the grand prize, a player must match the six numbers on their ticket to the drawn six-number combination. The five numbers need to be selected from 1 to 69 for the white balls, while the remaining number is selected from 1 to 26 for the red Powerball.

To claim jackpot prizes, the winners will have options, they can either select their prize as an annuity or a lump-sum payment. The annuity guarantees the winner to receive 30 graduated payments over 29 years. The annual payments increase by 5% until the 30th and final payment. The 30 payments added up equal the value of the annuity.

The Powerball costs $2 per play. Powerball is available in 45 states, Washington DC, Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands.
