    There were people all over the country checking their tickets for the Powerball game on Saturday night. The jackpot had risen to $21 million.

    This had people hoping for the best. People have their ways of checking if they won or not. They check immediately or wait.

    This time around, there was no jackpot winner. Authorities from Powerball revealed that there was no winner of the jackpot prize during the Saturday drawing on Dec. 27.

    As a result of this development, the jackpot will now rollover and increase in value for the upcoming drawing.


    ​Powerball winning numbers for Dec. 27

    The winning numbers for the Dec. 27, 2025 Powerball draw were:

    5, 20, 34, 39, and 62

    Powerball number: 1

    Power Play: 2x

    Some players may have matched a few numbers and won smaller prizes.

    However, no ticket matched all five white balls along with the Powerball. This means the $21 million jackpot was not claimed.

    Lottery officials also shared that no ticket even matched all five white balls on their own. That is why the top prize will continue to grow.


    Jackpot rolls over to the next draw

    Since there was no jackpot winner on Saturday, the prize money will move to the next drawing.

    The estimated jackpot for the upcoming draw is now around $33 million. The estimated cash value of that amount is $15.2 million.

    When jackpots roll over like this, more people usually decide to play.

    Many players feel excited when they see the numbers climb higher. Even so, the lottery always reminds players to play responsibly.
