REYNOLDSBURG, Ohio — Although nobody won the $303 million Powerball jackpot in the latest drawing that was held on Wednesday, Jan. 15, 2025, the Ohio Lottery says one lucky player in the state just hit a big prize worth $1 million!
That winning ticket was sold at the Winners Corner in Reynoldsburg, which is located east of Columbus. The Ohio Lottery says it was an auto-pick ticket that narrowly missed the jackpot for failing to match the Powerball.
But that's not all... There were thousands of other winners that hit a variety of prizes throughout Ohio, which you can see listed below.
$1 million prize: 1 winner
$300 prize: 11 winners
$100 prize: 14 winners
$21 prize: 377 winners
$12 prize: 5,195 winners
$7 prize: 652 winners
$4 prize: 9,285 winners
The lucky numbers from the Wednesday night drawing were 8, 41, 52, 53, 58 and Powerball 7. The Power Play option was 3x.
The jackpot now climbs to $331 million for the next Powerball drawing, which is set for Saturday, Jan. 18 at 10:59 p.m. That prize has a cash option worth $145.1 million.
Powerball lottery officials say the odds of hitting the jackpot are one in 292,201,338, which is slightly better than the Mega Millions odds of one in 302,575,350. The odds of hitting a $1 million winning ticket in Powerball, meanwhile, are one in 11,688,053.52.
Northeast Ohio had a big Powerball winner in 2023 as one lucky ticket sold at a GetGo in Macedonia hit the jackpot worth $252.6 million during the April 19 drawing.
