Updated March 16, 2024 - 10:35 pm

Once again, nobody won the $600 million Powerball jackpot Saturday, moving the Monday jackpot to an estimated $645 million.

The numbers were 12-22-44-57-61 with a Powerball of 5. The multiplier was 2x. Three tickets won $1 million each for matching all five regular numbers. They were sold in Michigan, New Jersey and South Carolina.

The most recent Powerball jackpot winner was Jan. 1, 2024, when a jackpot of $842.4 million was sold in Michigan. It was the fifth-largest prize in Powerball history.

The Mega Millions jackpot on Tuesday is an estimated $845 million after nobody won the Friday prize of $815 million.

The odds of winning either nationwide lottery is roughly 1 in 300 million.
