A Powerball ticket worth $1 million was bought in New Jersey for Saturday’s lottery drawing.

State lottery officials will disclose where the second-prize ticket was sold later Monday morning.

No one across the country hit the $243.4 million jackpot, pushing the top prize for Monday night’s drawing to an estimated $253 million. The cash option is worth an $178.9 million.

There was also second-prize ticket purchased for Saturday’s drawing in California. Second-prize tickets match five numbers but not the Powerball.

Saturday’s winning numbers were: 8, 32, 55, 64 and 66. The Powerball drawn was 10 with a Power Play of 2x.

No one hit the secondary, $10 million Double Play drawing on Saturday. There were also no second-prize, $500,000 tickets sold. The Double Play numbers drawn were: 7, 11, 19, 31 and 58. The Double Play Powerball was 14.

The odds of hitting the Powerball jackpot are 292,201,388 to 1. A player who buys a $2 ticket has about a 1 in 11,688,053 chance to match five numbers and win at least $1 million, while the odds are 913,129 to 1 of winning the third prize of at least $50,000.

Powerball is played on Monday, Wednesday and Saturday in 45 states, Washington D.C., the U.S. Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico.

New Jersey Lottery offices remain open by appointment more than 20 months into the coronavirus pandemic.
