Two Players Hit $1.8 Billion Powerball Jackpot

Two lucky lottery players from Missouri and Texas will share the record-shaking $1.8 billion Powerball jackpot, drawn on Saturday, September 6, 2025.

The winning numbers were: 11, 23, 44, 61, 62, with the Powerball 17.

This jackpot ranks as the second-largest in U.S. lottery history, building up over 41 consecutive drawings since the last jackpot was won on May 31, 2025.

Payout Options

Each winning ticket is valued at around $893.5 million under the annuity option, paid over 29 years.

If winners opt for the cash lump sum, which most do, they will receive about $410.3 million each before taxes.


Where the Winning Tickets Were Sold

The Texas ticket was purchased at a gas station-convenience store in Fredericksburg.

The Missouri ticket’s exact location has not yet been revealed.


Other Big Winners

The jackpot wasn’t the only prize handed out Saturday night:

Two tickets (in Kansas and Texas) matched all five white balls with the Power Play option, earning $2 million each.

18 tickets nationwide matched all five white balls, winning $1 million each.


This historic drawing once again highlights the incredible excitement and life changing payouts of the Powerball lottery.
