If you weren’t the lucky Georgia resident who won Friday’s nearly $1 billion Mega Millions jackpot, Powerball is still here to give you a chance to win about half of that. Still not a paltry sum.
The Powerball jackpot is once again climbing with the Monday, Nov. 17, 2025, prize at $570 million. That means some lucky winner could win a $266.9 million cash prize if they choose a one-time payout.
To win Powerball, players have to buy a ticket matching all five numbers and the Powerball — the odds of winning were 1 in 292,201,338 — and have the option to select a one-time cash payout worth $826.4 million instead of annual payments.
See below for the winning numbers for the Nov. 17 Powerball drawing to see if you won.
The winning numbers in the Nov. 17 drawing were 7, 33, 50, 57, 66 and the Powerball was 23. The  Power Play was 5.
There was no winner of the Nov. 17 Powerball jackpot.
One player in West Virginia matched five numbers and won $1 million.
The next Powerball drawing will be held at 10:59 p.m. ET on Wednesday, Nov. 19, 2025. The prize now stands at $592 million with a cash value of $277.6 million.
Powerball drawings are held Monday, Wednesday and Saturday and are streamed live on the Powerball website.
Check to see if you won through the Ohio Lottery or Powerball website.
The Powerball is available in 45 states, including Ohio, Indiana, and Kentucky, as well as in Washington, D.C., Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. 
Tickets are available for purchase at gas stations, convenience stores and grocery stores across Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana. Sales cut-off times often vary by one to two hours before the drawing, depending on where you’re buying your tickets.
You can also purchase tickets in Ohio through the Ohio Lottery website at www.ohiolottery.com.
A Powerball ticket costs $2 per play. Players can pay an extra $1 to add the Power Play for a chance to multiply all Powerball winnings, except for the jackpot. You can also add a Double Play for an additional $1 to have a second chance at winning $10 million.
Powerball costs $2 per play. In states like Idaho and Montana, it’s bundled with Power Play for a minimum purchase price of $3 per play.
Players can pick five numbers (or you can have them chosen randomly) between 1 and 69 for the white balls, then select one number between 1 and 26 for the red Powerball.
The “Power Play” multiplier can multiply winnings by: 2X, 3X, 4X, 5X, or 10X.
The Powerball jackpot continues to grow until someone wins. Players win a prize by matching one of nine ways to win. Players can only win the full jackpot by matching all five white balls in any order and the red Powerball. 
Jackpot winners may choose to receive their prize as an annuity, paid in 30 graduated payments over 29 years, or a lump-sum payment. Both advertised prize options are before state, local, and/or federal taxes. 
None of the biggest Powerball winners bought their tickets in Ohio. Here are the Top 10 Powerball jackpots in the history of the game as of Sept. 3, 2025:
Five winning Powerball tickets have been sold in Ohio, according to powerball.net, an independent website that tracks and aggregates Powerball data.
Those five winners rank Ohio 31st out of Powerball’s 48 operating areas. Roughly 1.2% of all jackpot winners have been from Ohio.
Meanwhile, Ohio’s neighbor, Indiana, has had 39 jackpot winners, or 9.3% of the total. That’s even though Ohio is the seventh most populous state, and Indiana is 17th. 
Here is every time an Ohioan has won the jackpot, according to Powerball.net.

Is today your lucky day?
The Mega Millions lottery jackpot was an estimated $50 million the Tuesday, Nov. 18 drawing after a lottery player in Georgia won the $983 million jackpot on Friday, according to the Mega Millions website. 
The jackpot was last won when a lottery player in Georgia won a $983 million jackpot on Nov. 14.
Meanwhile, the Powerball jackpot is at $593 million with a cash option of $277.6 million, according to the Powerball website. 
Check back here after 11 p.m. for the Mega Millions winning numbers for Tuesday, Nov. 18, 2025.
Mega Millions drawings are held every Tuesday and Friday at 11 p.m.
The cost is now $5 per ticket and includes a multiplier that will increase the amount of your potential prize up to 10 times the original prize (except for the jackpot). The Mega Millions implemented a slew of changes on April 8, 2025.
Each player selects five numbers from 1 to 70 for the white balls and one number from 1 to 24 for the Mega Ball (down from 25 Mega Balls). However, you can also have the lottery machine generate a random Quick Pick for you. You don’t need to be a U.S. citizen or a resident of a particular state where you purchase your ticket.
You can win at least $10 for the matching just one – the Mega Ball. Short of the jackpot, you can win a minimum of $2 million for matching all five white balls (except in California). You can check all the prize payouts on the Mega Millions site here.
You can play the game in 45 states plus the District of Columbia and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The states not offering Mega Millions are: Alabama, Alaska, Hawaii, Nevada and Utah.
Tickets can be purchased in-person at gas stations, convenience stores and grocery stores. Some airport terminals may also sell lottery tickets. 
You can also order tickets online through Jackpocket, the official digital lottery courier of the USA TODAY Network, in these U.S. states: Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Idaho, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Ohio, Oregon, Washington D.C. and West Virginia. The Jackpocket app allows you to pick your lottery game and numbers, place your order, see your ticket and collect your winnings all using your phone or home computer.  
The deadline for purchasing a Mega Millions ticket varies by state so don’t wait until the last minute. It can be 15 minutes to an hour or more before the actual drawing. For some third-party lottery apps, the deadline can be closer to two hours before the drawing. For example, Jackpocket in New Jersey has a deadline of 9:15 p.m. for the 11 p.m. ET drawing.

Playing the Mega Millions can be exciting, but just don’t go spending those millions before you win.
The odds of winning the jackpot are 290,472,336-to-1.
Unlucky? Here are 13 crazy things more likely to happen than winning the lottery
The major lotteries in the United States offer two jackpot payout options: annuity and cash.
The annuity option is paid out over time. There is an immediate payment and then 29 annual payments after that, increasing by 5% each year. The cash option is significantly lower than the advertised jackpot, but it is paid in a lump sum. You don’t have to wait decades for all the money.
In some states, like New Jersey, you can win a lottery anonymously. That wasn’t always the case, but now winners are able to stay anonymous under a law that was signed by Gov. Phil Murphy. In other states, a winner’s name and hometown are a matter of public record. Check with your state lottery for more information.

On Wednesday, August 20th, scores of off-duty Soldiers and civilians talk, dance in place, and sing along to “Shake it Off” by Taylor Swift as they wait in line at the Morale, Welfare and Recreation (MWR) Stage and Entertainment area on Camp Buehring, Kuwait. A strategic staging and training post for Active Duty and National Guard troops alike, Camp Buehring winds down for the night as the audience arrives to receive their game cards for the bi-weekly Bingo Night. This important morale event has become a staple of the base’s community, offering a fun and engaging outlet, as well as high-end prizes.

During deployments, the stress of performing rigorous tasks daily in the heat of the desert, miles away from home, is quick to weigh on any person. While the post provides numerous resources such as sports tournaments, movie theatres, and recreation area to help, the MWR team has found few things have been more beneficial than a night out with friends. MWR Volunteer DJ, Jake Bustos, says it’s a reminder of home.

 “There’s nothing that beats it,” said Bustos. “I think your biggest friendships in the military come from being deployed and just being in an environment where you just have each other. Everyone’s going through the same things. They are missing family and friends back home, so to be able to get together for a little bit and kind of feel like you are back home hanging out with people definitely helps.”

The Bingo Nights on Camp Buehring begin at 7pm every Wednesday and Saturday night, with players checking in to receive their game cards. Music blasts throughout the post as Busto deejays to start the night and in between rounds. A Volunteer MC explains which board arrangement will win the game and lights up an LED lightboard that reminds players of the alphanumeric combinations that have been called. Players are encouraged to participate throughout by joining the MC in call-and-response chants to certain combinations and shouting “Bingo!” loudly to indicate they have come up with the correct arrangement on their cards. Correct cards equate to substantial prizes such as wireless speakers, ear buds, blankets, and even televisions.

“It was pretty fun winning something,” said Devin Fish, a first-time event attendee. “Normally, I’m an unlucky person, but tonight I won and was pretty excited. I won a speaker system, and the prizes throughout the night were good too.”

Although the prizes are enticing, many state that the recurring events’ relaxed atmosphere and sense of community are what keep them coming back.

 “It’s just an escape,” said Nathalia Mears, who has attended for the past seven months. “It’s pretty chill, the area is nice, and they have good music. There is a community with the people who go, and we just have fun.”

After briefly pausing for the 12-Day War, Bingo Night continues to be a much-anticipated affair that has only increased in popularity. Since the war, MWR Staff have added the Wednesday night games after hearing participants’ request for more. The hosts are committed to maintaining a positive environment that promotes friendly competition and improving social interaction for all on the post.

“The night is where people come to release when they have free time,” said Kenlay Mugo, a MWR team member. “When people come out and see what we do, they may have an eye to see something we are not seeing, and so we can hear from them, improve, and get better. We are better together.”

Bingo Night continues to be a vital occurrence for fostering esprit de corps on Camp Buehring, and MWR plans to keep hosting it for residents. For Fish, Mears, and many other participants, that’s the way it should be.

“It is a good way for Soldiers to ease their minds,” said Fish. “Everyone has fun, and it’s interactive. I would encourage people to go at least once. Get out of your room, get out of your work routine, and try to relax.”

“Bingo night should continue,” said Mears. “I feel like a lot of people don’t have anything to do [at Camp Buehring], there are the movies, but you can do that anywhere. You can bring a friend and get a rush of adrenaline when you win!”
