Powerball Rolls Over: Monday’s Numbers Reveal Massive New Jackpot Total

Powerball Drawing Results: August 10, 2026 — No Jackpot Winner, Next Drawing Wednesday

Quick Note: This article covers the Powerball drawing held on Monday, August 10, 2026. The jackpot reached an estimated $929.1 million (with a cash value of $391.9 million).


Winning Numbers for Monday, August 10

Here are the numbers drawn:

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

ELI5 Explanation: Think of the white balls like the main numbers on your ticket (you pick 5). The red Powerball is a special bonus number (you pick 1). The Power Play is an extra feature you can buy that multiplies non-jackpot prizes.


Did Anyone Win the Jackpot?

No one won the grand prize. The jackpot will roll over to the next drawing.

However, there were some big winners:

  • $2 Million Winner: A ticket sold in Tennessee matched all 5 white balls AND had the Power Play (3x), turning the usual $1 million prize into $2 million.
  • $1 Million Winners: Tickets sold in California and Maryland each matched all 5 white balls (but did not have the Power Play).

FAQ: Your Top 5 Questions Answered

1. "If I match just the Powerball number, do I win anything?"

Yes! Matching only the red Powerball wins you $4 (or $12 with the 3x Power Play). It’s the smallest prize, but it pays for your next two tickets!

2. "Can I buy Powerball tickets online?"

In Michigan, yes! You can buy tickets online via the Michigan Lottery website or app until 9:45 p.m. on drawing nights. Check your own state’s rules — not all states allow online sales.

3. "What happens if I lose my winning ticket?"

You generally cannot claim a prize without the physical ticket. Lottery tickets are "bearer instruments" — whoever holds the ticket owns it. Sign the back of your ticket immediately after buying it and keep it in a safe place!

4. "Do I have to choose between annuity and cash right when I buy the ticket?"

No. You only choose after you win the jackpot.

  • Annuity: Paid in 30 graduated payments over 29 years.
  • Cash: A one-time, smaller lump sum (for this drawing, $391.9 million vs. $929.1 million annuity).

5. "Does Power Play multiply the jackpot?"

Never. Power Play only multiplies the non-jackpot prizes (the $1 million, $50,000, $100, etc.). The jackpot amount is always the advertised annuity or cash value, regardless of Power Play.


Good Luck! Remember: Play responsibly. Never spend money you can’t afford to lose. The lottery is entertainment, not an investment plan.
