The suspense was high for the Powerball drawing held on Wednesday, September 10, 2025. Lottery enthusiasts across the nation eagerly checked their tickets, hoping to find themselves among the next group of millionaires. Here’s a breakdown of the latest results and what to expect for the upcoming drawings.
Powerball Winning Numbers: September 10, 2025
Wednesday night’s winning numbers were 2, 24, 45, 53, 64 with a Powerball of 5. The Power Play multiplier for this draw was 2X. Unfortunately, no ticket holder matched all six numbers to claim the jackpot, which stood at an estimated $33 million with a cash option of $15.2 million.
However, a lucky player in Washington state matched five of the main numbers (excluding the Powerball) and, thanks to adding the Power Play option, secured a $2 million prize. This is an impressive win, though the top grand prize remains unclaimed.
Powerball Double Play Results
Alongside the main game, the Double Play drawing offered additional chances to win. The numbers drawn for Double Play were 2, 12, 27, 31, 60, and the Powerball was 10. Sadly, no one matched all six numbers, and no tickets matched five numbers plus the Powerball, which would have netted $500,000. What’s Next? Upcoming Drawings and Jackpots
With no jackpot winner on September 10, the Powerball jackpot continues to grow. The next drawing, scheduled for Saturday, September 13, 2025, is expected to start at $50 million, featuring a tempting cash option of $23 million. Drawings as usual are held thrice weekly—Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday—around 10:59 p.m. ET.
For those new to Powerball or seeking to brush up, it’s worth noting that matching just one number, the Powerball itself, guarantees a prize of $4. Additionally, players can enhance their play by adding the Power Play multiplier or the Double Play feature to increase their potential winnings.
Mega Millions Update
Meanwhile, Mega Millions remains a hot ticket as well. The winning numbers from Tuesday, September 9, were 6, 43, 52, 64, 65, with a Mega Ball of 22. Like Powerball, no jackpot winner emerged, and the jackpot for the next drawing on Friday, September 12, escalated to approximately $381 million with a $175 million cash option.
Reflecting on 2025’s Biggest Jackpots
This year has already seen some massive Powerball jackpots:
- $328.5 million on January 18 in Oregon
- $526.5 million on March 29 in California
- $1.787 billion on September 6 shared between Missouri and Texas, marking one of the largest jackpots in history
- Several other winnings ranging from $167 million to over $204 million
Powerball continues to thrill players with life-changing sums, maintaining its place among the country’s most popular lottery games alongside Mega Millions.
Tips for Players
While the lottery is a game of chance, many players look to historically common numbers for inspiration. For those interested, numbers like 2, 24, 45, and 64 have appeared in recent draws. Remember, though, that every drawing is random, and no set of numbers is a guaranteed winner.
Final Thoughts
Though no one hit the jackpot on September 10, the promise of multimillion-dollar winnings remains alive for the Saturday draw and beyond. If you’re feeling lucky, now is the time to grab your ticket, consider adding Power Play or Double Play, and join the millions dreaming of striking it rich.
Good luck to all players — maybe next time, the big win will be yours!
