If you woke up this morning clutching your orange ticket and dreaming of a private island, you might need to hold onto that dream for just a little longer—but don’t throw that ticket away just yet!
The huge drawing for the $1.1 billion Powerball jackpot took place Monday night, December 15, 2025. Millions of people across the country were hoping to match all six numbers.
So, the big question is: Did anyone win?
The Short Answer: No Jackpot Winner
According to the official [suspicious link removed], no single ticket matched all six numbers to take home the Grand Prize.
That means the pot of gold is getting even bigger. Because nobody won the top prize, the jackpot has rolled over again. It has now swelled to an estimated $1.25 Billion for the next drawing.
This makes it the sixth-largest jackpot in the game’s history!
The Winning Numbers (Dec 15, 2025)
Even if you didn’t win the billion dollars, you should still check your ticket. There are smaller prizes ranging from $4 to $2 million.
Here are the winning numbers from Monday night:
| Ball Type | Numbers |
| White Balls | 23 – 35 – 59 – 63 – 68 |
| Red Powerball | 2 |
| Power Play | 4X |
Did Anyone Win Anything?
Yes! While nobody hit the “big one,” there were still plenty of winners.
- Second Tier Winners: Several lucky players matched the five white balls (but missed the red Powerball) to win $1 million.
- Power Play Winners: If those players spent the extra dollar for the “Power Play” option, their prize would have doubled to $2 million.
It is always smart to double-check your numbers. You might not be a billionaire, but winning $50,000 or even $100 is a pretty good way to start the week.
When Is the Next Drawing?
Since there was no winner, the excitement continues. You have another chance to try your luck very soon.
- Next Draw Date: Wednesday, December 17, 2025
- Estimated Jackpot: $1.25 Billion
- Cash Value: Approx. $572.1 Million (if you choose the lump sum)
How to Play Safe
Remember, the odds of winning the Powerball jackpot are about 1 in 292.2 million. It’s fun to dream, but always play responsibly. Never spend money on lottery tickets that you need for bills or groceries.
Good luck on Wednesday!
