The Powerball jackpot has soared to an estimated $875 million — the second biggest prize this year and one of the biggest in the game’s history.<\/p>\n

The estimated prize grew after no one claimed the jackpot in Saturday night’s drawing, according to a notice on the Powerball website<\/a>. The winning numbers were 13, 14, 26, 28, 44 with Powerball 7.<\/p>\n

The next drawing is set for Monday, Dec. 8.<\/p>\n

The jackpot is the game’s biggest prize this year after a massive $1.787 billion jackpot that was won in September, split between two tickets in Missouri and Texas<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Overall, it’s the seventh-biggest jackpot in the game’s history, according to Powerball<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The odds of winning are 1 in over 292 million, according to Powerball.<\/p>\n

Winners will have a choice between a lump sum cash payment of $403.6 million or an annuitized prize, paid out in annual payments. Both amounts are before taxes.<\/p>\n

To play, customers must purchase a $2 Powerball ticket and select five white numbers between 1 and 69 and one red number between 1 and 26 for the Powerball. The prize grows until it is won by a player with the corresponding five white numbers in any order with the matching red Powerball.<\/p>\n
