The Powerball jackpot surged to an estimated $905 million ahead of Monday night’s drawing, making it the eighth-largest prize in the game’s history.<\/p>\n
The pot grew after no ticket matched all six numbers from Saturday night’s drawing.<\/p>\n
The white balls were 5, 9, 35, 54 and 63. The red Powerball was 7 and the Power Play multiplier was three.<\/p>\n
It now has an estimated cash value of $391.9 million, according to the lottery.<\/p>\n

Though there was no jackpot winner in the latest drawing, four tickets matched all five white balls and won $1 million each, the lottery said. Winning Match 5 tickets were sold in Arizona, Florida, Michigan and New York. A ticket matching all five white balls was sold in Texas and included the Power Play option, increasing the prize to $2 million.\u00a0<\/p>\n
