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

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.
