Powerball Rollover! Monday’s Winning Numbers (8/10/26) – Jackpot Soars

Powerball Drawing Results for August 10, 2026: No Jackpot Winner, Jackpot Grows to Nearly $1 Billion!

What Happened in the Monday, August 10 Drawing?

The Powerball drawing on Monday, August 10, 2026 had a massive estimated jackpot of $929.1 million (with a cash option of $391.9 million). But here’s the big news: nobody won the jackpot! That means the prize money rolls over to the next drawing, making it even bigger.

Important Callout:
No one matched all six numbers to win the jackpot. The jackpot will keep growing for the next drawing on Wednesday, August 12, 2026.


The Winning Numbers

Here are the numbers drawn on Monday, August 10, 2026:

Ball Type Numbers
White Balls (5 numbers) 6, 37, 54, 55, 64
Red Powerball (1 number) 10
Power Play Multiplier 3x

Important Callout:
The Power Play multiplier was 3x — this means non-jackpot prizes for players who paid extra for Power Play were tripled!


Did Anyone Win Big?

Even though no one hit the jackpot, three tickets won big prizes:

State Prize How They Won
Tennessee $2 million Matched 5 white balls + Power Play (3x multiplier turned $1M into $2M)
California $1 million Matched 5 white balls (no Power Play)
Maryland $1 million Matched 5 white balls (no Power Play)

Important Callout:
The $2 million winner in Tennessee got double the usual $1 million prize because they added Power Play and the multiplier was 3x!
