Powerball jackpot climbs to $740M after no weekend grand prize winner

The Powerball jackpot sits at an estimated $740 million ahead of Monday night’s drawing — setting up one of the game's biggest prizes of the year.

 
 

The pot grew after no ticket matched all six numbers from Saturday night’s drawing. The white balls were 8, 23, 25, 40, 53. The red Powerball was 5.

One ticketholder in Florida matched all five white balls, winning a $1 million prize.

The grand prize now has an estimated cash value of $346.1 million, according to the lottery.
