Virginia player scores $2M Powerball win! – 13newsnow.com

RICHMOND, Va. — A lucky Virginia player is $2 million richer after purchasing a Powerball ticket for Saturday night’s drawing at the Wawa located at 7316 Forest Hill Avenue in Richmond.
The winning numbers for the October 25 drawing were 2-12-22-39-67, with a Powerball of 15. The ticket matched the first five numbers but missed the Powerball. Normally, that prize would be $1 million, but the player added the $1 Power Play option, doubling the winnings to $2 million.
This was the only ticket in Virginia to match the first five numbers and one of only two nationwide. No ticket matched all six numbers, leaving the jackpot for Monday’s drawing at an estimated $358 million.
The winner has 180 days from the drawing date to claim the prize and is advised by the Virginia Lottery to immediately sign the back of the ticket to establish ownership. The Richmond store that sold the winning ticket will receive a $10,000 bonus.
Powerball drawings take place at 10:59 p.m. on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays. The odds of hitting the jackpot are 1 in 292.2 million, while the overall odds of winning any Powerball prize are 1 in 25.
All Virginia Lottery profits go to K-12 education. Last fiscal year, Richmond schools received more than $22.5 million from the Lottery, which raised over $901 million statewide for K-12 education in 2025.
