The purse at stake on Saturday was still below the $1.13 billion jackpot won this week in a drawing by another lottery, Mega Millions, and well below the largest single lottery prize total in U.S. history.

That came in November 2022 when a lone ticket holder in California won a $2.04 billion Powerball jackpot.

The 11th-largest U.S. lottery jackpot will be up for grabs in Monday evening’s multi-state Powerball drawing, $800 million.

There have been no tickets sold with all five numbers and the Powerball number for the 35 drawings dating back to Jan. 3.

The odds of matching all five numbers and the Powerball number is 1 in 292.2 million, according to the Multi-State Lottery Association. The overall chance of winning a prize is 1 in 24.9.

The jackpot is the sixth-largest in the history of the Powerball game which began in 1992. There have been five larger jackpots for the Mega Millions game, which began in 1996 as The Big Game and was given the new name Mega Millions in 2002.

The drawing will take place at 7:59 p.m. Tickets sold after 7:05 p.m. are ineligible for that night’s draw, but are eligible for the following draw.

The Powerball game is played in 45 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and U.S. Virgin Islands.

Buying tickets at a store where tickets with large jackpots have been sold in the past will not increase a purchaser’s chance of winning a jackpot, according to USC mathematics professor Ken Alexander.

“The chance that a given place will sell a winning lottery ticket is just related to how many tickets they sell,” Alexander told City News Service.

However, players wanting a better chance of avoiding sharing the jackpot should choose numbers that aren’t selected as often, Alexander said. Lottery players frequently choose the date of their birthdays as one of their numbers, so numbers higher than 31 would be played less, Alexander said.

The eighth-largest jackpot in U.S. lottery history will be at stake in Tuesday’s Mega Millions drawing, $1.1 billion.
