A single ticket holder in Delaware has claimed the $231 million Powerball jackpot, ending the latest run of the multi-state lottery with a life-changing win on April 6. The winning numbers — 7, 24, 37, 42, 57 with Powerball 5 — delivered one of the biggest prizes of the year so far.
The jackpot carried a cash option of $104.9 million, offering the winner a substantial lump-sum payout. While the identity of the ticket holder has not yet been disclosed, the win has already drawn national attention across the United States lottery community.
Winning numbers and key results
Monday night’s draw confirmed a single jackpot winner, with no rollovers needed. The Power Play multiplier for the night was 2X, though it does not apply to the jackpot prize.
Alongside the jackpot win, there was also a $2 million Match 5 + Power Play winner in Texas. No player secured the standard $1 million Match 5 prize in this drawing, making the Delaware ticket the clear headline result.
Players who participated in the Double Play feature saw separate winning numbers drawn: 3, 17, 48, 56, 64, with Powerball 20.
Next drawing resets to $20 million
With the jackpot now claimed, the Powerball resets to an estimated $20 million for the next drawing scheduled on April 8. The corresponding cash value stands at $9.1 million, marking a fresh start for players entering the next round.
Powerball drawings are held three times a week — every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday at 11 p.m. ET — continuing to attract millions of participants nationwide.
The odds of winning the jackpot remain steep at 1 in 292.2 million, reinforcing the rarity of such a win. Still, the game continues to generate excitement with each drawing, especially as jackpots grow into hundreds of millions.
Tickets are widely available across 45 U.S. states, Washington, DC, and the U.S. Virgin Islands, with options to purchase in-store at gas stations, convenience stores, and supermarkets. In select regions, players can also buy tickets online through official lottery platforms or authorized services.
A standard Powerball ticket costs $2, with an additional $1 option for Power Play, which multiplies non-jackpot winnings. Some states also offer Double Play for another $1, giving players a second chance at prizes up to $10 million.
For those tracking results or planning their next entry, official updates and draw details are available through the Powerball official website, which provides real-time information on winning numbers and payouts.
