The Powerball jackpot has been climbing to dizzying heights, capturing the attention of lottery players across the country. Last night’s drawing on Monday, September 1, 2025, had an estimated jackpot of $1.1 billion, making it the fifth-largest prize in Powerball history. But did anyone claim this massive prize?
No Jackpot Winner for September 1, 2025
According to the latest reports, no ticket matched all six numbers in the Powerball drawing held on Monday, September 1, 2025. The winning numbers were 8, 23, 25, 40, 53, with the red Powerball 5 and a Power Play multiplier of 3x. Without a jackpot winner, the prize continues to grow, with the next drawing expected to push the jackpot even higher, potentially nearing record-breaking territory.
Recent Powerball Trends
The Powerball has seen a streak of 40 consecutive drawings without a jackpot winner since the last grand prize was claimed on May 31, 2025, in California. This run is approaching the record of 42 drawings set in April 2024. The previous drawing on Saturday, August 30, 2025, with numbers 3, 18, 22, 27, 33, and Powerball 17, also had no jackpot winner but produced 12 lucky players who matched the five white balls for $1 million each, with three of those prizes boosted to $2 million due to the Power Play option.
What Happens Next?
With no jackpot winner, the prize rolls over to the next drawing, scheduled for Wednesday, September 3, 2025, at 11 p.m. ET. The jackpot is expected to climb further, increasing the excitement for players in the 45 participating states, Washington D.C., Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The odds of winning the jackpot remain steep at 1 in 292.2 million, but the allure of a billion-dollar prize keeps hopefuls coming back.
Players can purchase tickets for $2 per play, with an optional $1 Power Play feature that can multiply non-jackpot prizes by up to 10 times. The Double Play option, available in some states for an additional $1, offers a second chance to win up to $10 million in a separate drawing.
