Powerball results, Aug. 8: no winner at $856M jackpot

· By Patrick Gilmore, Founder

No one won the Powerball jackpot on Saturday, August 8, 2026.

The winning numbers drawn were 5, 9, 35, 54, and 63, with Powerball number 7. The Power Play multiplier was 3x.

The estimated jackpot entering the drawing was $856 million, which ranks as the eighth-largest in Powerball history, according to Powerball. The cash value was estimated at $341.6 million before taxes.

Five tickets matched all five white balls without the Powerball, each worth $1,000,000 before taxes, according to USA Mega. Winning second-prize tickets were sold in Arizona, Florida, Michigan, New York, and Texas. The Texas ticket included the Power Play add-on, which raised that prize to $2,000,000 before taxes.

The jackpot has rolled without a winner since May 2026. Powerball had not yet posted an official estimate for the Monday jackpot as of Sunday morning; check the current Powerball numbers page for the updated figure once Powerball publishes it.
