0:00 / 0:00

Listen to the story

Powerball is a big lottery game in the United States. People buy tickets and choose numbers. If your numbers match, you can win money.

On Saturday, September 12, 2026, Powerball had a jackpot of $207 million. This was the top prize for one person.

No one won the biggest prize. So the jackpot money did not go to one winner. It will get bigger for the next drawing.

Now the new jackpot is $232 million. This is for the next Powerball drawing.

Some players in Ohio still won smaller prizes. These prizes are for people who match some, but not all, numbers.

Powerball happens many times every week. People check the winning numbers after each drawing.

You can find all the winning numbers and prizes on lottery websites. Ohio has its own list of winners too.
