No one matched all six numbers in Monday's Powerball drawing, increasing the jackpot to $700 million for Saturday tonight's drawing. Friday night's Mega Millions jackpot is an estimated $45 million dollars.

The winning Powerball numbers drawn Monday were: 18-23-35-45-54, Powerball: 16.

A basic Powerball ticket costs $2, and to claim the big prize you'll need to match five numbers (1-69), plus the Powerball (1-26). The odds? 1 in 292,301,388. Assuming you win the Powerball jackpot Saturday, you can choose to take the lump-sum cash option and take home $336 million.

In April a Mega Millions ticket sold in Ramsey, Minnesota matched all numbers for a $106 million dollar payday. It was the first Mega Millions jackpot winner in the state.
