Someone in Kentucky just became $167 million richer, the winning Powerball ticket for Saturday night’s drawing matched all six numbers, making it the 19th Powerball jackpot win in the state’s history.
The cash value? A cool $77.3 million – not bad for picking the right six numbers.
We don’t know yet which store sold the lucky ticket, but officials are expected to release more info soon. The big win comes just weeks after a $526.5 million jackpot was claimed in California on March 29.
Winning Numbers for 4/26/25
The magic numbers were: 1 – 12 – 14 – 18 – 69 and Powerball 2.
Power Play was 3x for anyone who tacked that extra $1 on their ticket.
What Happens Now?
Since someone hit it big, the Powerball jackpot will reset to $20 million for Monday night’s drawing. Happens every time someone wins. New round, new dreams.
