“As the jackpot swells, so does the probability of someone winning,” said Powerball Product Group Chair and Pennsylvania Lottery Executive Director Drew Svitko in a press release. “We expect to see more coverage of number combinations in Saturday’s drawing.”
The odds of winning the jackpot are just 1 in 292.2 million.
The current jackpot run has landed in the record books as one of the game’s longest streaks without a jackpot winner, said experts. The last time the Powerball jackpot was won was Jan 1, 2024.
