The Powerball lottery drawing was held and the jackpot was $288 million this Monday with the option to get it in cash for about $178.3 million, so what's next is to know the numbers that were winners in the first drawing of the three that are held every week.

Monday, April 11 winning numbers

This April 11, 2022 the numbers that came out in the drawing were 05, 34, 24, 31 and 07, being the Powerball drawn number 4 and the Power Play of 2X.

It is worth remembering that, in last Saturday's drawing, no one was able to win the $273 jackpot, it was extremely close to a ticket sold in Puerto Rico, which matched the first five numbers, but could not do with the Powerball, so his profit was around $2 million since he spent $1 more to buy the ticket to have the Power Play option.

The third place of that drawing corresponded to a ticket sold in New Jersey, which is estimated with a prize of $50,000 since it matched four of the first five numbers and also the Powerball.

What happened last Saturday?

Let's review last Saturday's winning numbers which were 6, 16, 31, 62 and 66. The Powerball drawn was 18 and just like Monday the Power Play was 2X.

Nobody won the $10 million corresponding to the second drawing after Saturday's main drawing, in that case the numbers were 3, 5, 35, 48 and 67 and the Powrball was 5.

The odds of winning the Powerball

As for the odds, the odds of winning the Powerball are 292,201,388 to 1, this in what refers to the jackpot, on the other hand, if you match the 5 numbers you get at least $1 million and that probability is 1 in 11,688,053, the third place of $50,000 has a probability of 913,129 to 1.
