The Powerball jackpot continued to draw attention across the United States on Monday night, with players chasing an estimated $45 million prize. The cash option for the draw stood at around $20.5 million.
Powerball winning numbers for Monday, April 13, 2026: 38, 43, 59, 63, 64 and Powerball 15. The Power Play was 3x.
The current jackpot followed a recent big win earlier this month, when a ticket sold in Delaware landed a $230.8 million prize. Since then, the top prize has reset and started building again as more drawings passed without another jackpot winner.
Powerball remains one of the most watched lottery games in the country. Players pick five numbers from 1 to 69 and one red Powerball from 1 to 26. Matching all six numbers wins the jackpot, while lower-tier prizes are paid for partial matches.
Drawings are held every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday at 10:59 p.m. ET. Monday drawings were added in recent years, giving players an extra weekly shot at the jackpot.
At the same time, Mega Millions has also been building, adding to the wider buzz around major U.S. lottery prizes. Even so, Powerballâs headline jackpots continue to dominate public attention whenever the prize climbs into eight or nine figures.
The odds of hitting the Powerball jackpot remain extremely long at roughly 1 in 292.2 million. Even so, the game continues to attract millions of players drawn by the possibility of a life-changing payout from a single ticket that costs just $2.
Players can also add the Power Play option for an extra $1, which boosts non-jackpot prizes. In this draw, the Power Play multiplier came in at 3x, increasing eligible winnings for players who added that feature.
Tickets are sold in 45 states, Washington D.C., Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Depending on the state, tickets can be bought at convenience stores, gas stations, grocery outlets, and in some places through licensed digital services.
