Did anyone win Powerball? Jackpot hits $740 million for Monday, Dec. 1 – The News Journal

Get your Powerball tickets ready because the jackpot continues to climb.
After no grand prize winner from the Saturday, Nov. 29 drawing, the Powerball jackpot for Monday, Dec. 1 rose to $740 million with a cash value of $346.1 million. It’s now approaching the top 10 biggest Powerball jackpots as 2025 nears to a close.
The last time the jackpot approached these levels happened this fall, when it reached $1.787 billion for the Sept. 6 drawing. That grand prize — the second largest in the game’s history — was won by a winning ticket purchased in Missouri and another in Texas.
Ready to try your luck with Powerball? Here’s everything you need to know.
The winning numbers from the Saturday, Nov. 29 drawing were 19-22-30-32-59, and the Powerball was 1. The Power Play was 2X.
No, no ticket had all five white Powerball numbers and the red Powerball to win the $719 million jackpot. A ticket in Florida matched the five white balls to win $1 million.
The next drawing will be Monday, Dec. 1 at 10:59 p.m. ET.
In Delaware, tickets may be purchased until 9:45 p.m. ET on the day of the drawing.
In New Jersey and Pennsylvania, you can purchase tickets until 9:59 p.m.
Powerball drawings are held three times a week, every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday at 10:59 p.m. ET.
The Powerball costs $2 per play.
In Pennsylvania, you can buy tickets online: www.pailottery.com/games/draw-games/.
Tickets can be bought online as well in New Jersey: njlotto.com.
To play, select five numbers from 1 to 69 for the white balls, then select one number from 1 to 26 for the red Powerball.
You can choose your lucky numbers on a play slip or let the lottery terminal randomly pick your numbers. 
To win, match one of the nine ways to win:
There’s a chance to have your winnings increased two, three, four, five and 10 times through the Power Play for an additional $1 per play. Players can multiply non-jackpot wins up to 10 times when the jackpot is $150 million or less.
All prizes are set cash amounts, except for the grand prize. In California, prize payout amounts are pari-mutuel, meaning it’s determined by the sales and the number of winners.
The odds of winning the Powerball grand prize are 1 in 292,201,338. The odds for the lowest prize, $4 for one red Powerball, are 1 in 38.32.
According to Powerball, the overall odds of winning a prize are 1 in 24.87, based on a $2 play and rounded to two decimal places.

Adversity unites playoff foes as Maple Leafs visit Panthers – CBS Sports

If not listed, please contact your TV provider.
The Toronto Maple Leafs hope their offensive spark stays lit when they visit the Florida Panthers on Tuesday night in Sunrise, Fla., in the teams’ first encounter since the second round of the 2025 Stanley Cup Playoffs.
Even as they linger near the bottom of the Eastern Conference, the Maple Leafs’ 7-2 clobbering of the Pittsburgh Penguins on Saturday sprung them to the top of the Atlantic Division in goals scored.
Each forward on Toronto’s third line — Bobby McMann, Dakota Joshua and Nicolas Roy — snapped a lengthy goalless drought in the second period.
“You gotta keep doing your job, right?” Joshua said after netting his first goal in 15 games. “And then you’ll get a result like that. I think it’s obviously been, you know, not ideal to this point, so to get that result means a lot and now the importance in keeping it going is there.”
Some of Toronto’s offense has come from the blue line. Oliver Ekman-Larsson left late in the game with an upper-body injury, though not before extending his point streak to nine.
With 20 points in 25 games, the Swedish defenseman is on pace for the highest scoring season of his career.
The Leafs hope to have him back against Florida, his former team, which eliminated Toronto from the last postseason in seven games.
“I’m hoping he’s fine,” said head coach Craig Berube. “I don’t know yet, but we’ll evaluate him tomorrow. I think he’ll be OK, but we’ll see.”
The Panthers are experiencing a rough patch in the midst of long-term injuries to star forwards Aleksander Barkov and Matthew Tkachuk. They fell 5-3 to the visiting Calgary Flames on Friday as opposing netminder Devin Cooley turned away 37 shots.
Following the loss to Calgary, Florida has dropped three of its last four and three straight at home.
The two-time defending Cup champion is disappointed to be sitting outside a playoff spot, though Florida coach Paul Maurice is of two minds given the circumstances.
“Nobody cares how injured you are or what you’re going through,” Maurice said. “I think there’s something really good that we can build out of this. We can take something out of our adversity and make it ours.”
Florida’s renowned depth has struggled to compensate for the absent Barkov and Tkachuk, who have yet to play this season. Reigning Conn Smythe Trophy winner Sam Bennett has just 12 points in 24 games, while Carter Verhaeghe (four goals) is on pace for his lowest total since the 2019-20 season.
Goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky’s .882 save percentage through 17 appearances is the lowest of his 16-year career.
The Panthers are hoping a rare four-day layover at home does them some good. The matchup with Toronto is the third of a season-long six-game homestand.
“Just being able to take at least one day to get your mind off hockey completely helps a lot,” said forward A.J. Greer, who has six goals and 10 points and is the rare Panther outscoring his usual pace.

Yancey County man goes from bored to ecstatic after $952,821 digital instant win – NC Education Lottery

Matthew Shepherd of Burnsville sat at home bored on Wednesday afternoon so he tried a $5 digital instant and won a $952,821 jackpot.
“I was just killing time out of boredom,” he recalled. “When it stopped at the jackpot I was like, ‘There’s no way.’”
Shepherd, 35, won the top level “Grand Fortune” jackpot in the Monopoly game. The digital instant game features a progressive jackpot that can be won at any time. The odds of that win were 1 in 10 million.
“I was ecstatic,” Shepherd said. “I would’ve been happy to just double my money.”
He claimed his prize Monday at lottery headquarters and, after required federal and state tax withholdings, took home $683,651.
Shepherd plans to use his winnings to invest and possibly buy a new truck.
After his big win, the jackpot reset at $150,000 and has climbed over $431,000 as of Monday afternoon.
Monopoly is a multi-state digital instant game. That means the progressive jackpots will grow higher, faster and winners could come from other states as well.
Digital instant games are played exclusively online on the lottery’s website or on the NC Lottery Official Mobile App. Fifty-nine different games are available to play online now.
Yancey County received $30 million in state grants funded by the lottery to help with school construction needs. For details on other ways money raised by the lottery made a difference in Yancey County last year, visit www.nclottery.com and click on the “Impact” section.
