While there weren’t any new Powerball billionaires waking up Sunday morning, a handful are $1 million richer than they went to bed.
Saturday’s Powerball results weren’t bad news for everyone — lottery officials say at least 16 tickets sold ahead of the drawing earned a $1 million prize.
The winning numbers were 28-45-53-56-69 Powerball: 20 Power Play: 3x
No lucky player snagged the top $1.6 billion jackpot, although there were a couple people in New York and New Jersey who now have a million reasons to celebrate after matching all five white balls.
In total, more than almost 11 million tickets won cash prizes totaling $102.2 million in Saturday’s drawing.
The New York Lottery also announced a Power Play Prize third place winning ticket was sold worth $150,000 — and 13 tickets won $50,000. Those 13 tickets were sold at:
- 7-Eleven on Dick Road in Buffalo – Power Play winner of $150,000
- Stewart’s Shops on Vandenburgh Avenue in Troy
- Circle K on Bloomingdale Road in Hicksville
- Cumberland Farms on Round Swamp Road in Plainview

Saturday’s jackpot topped the previous record prize of $1.586 billion won in 2016 by three Powerball players in California, Florida, and Tennessee.
