Powerball & Mega Millions Jackpots Both Over $300 Million

No one matched all six numbers in Saturday's Powerball drawing, increasing the jackpot to $336 million for Monday night's drawing. Not to be outdone, Tuesday night's Mega Millions jackpot is an estimated $388 million dollars.

The winning Powerball numbers drawn Saturday were: 8-21-22-65-69, Powerball: 26.

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 $177million.

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.
