BREAKING: A lucky player in Sherman Oaks has hit a significant win, claiming a Powerball ticket worth $1,378,451! This ticket was sold at the 76 Station located at 14478 Ventura Blvd. Although there was no jackpot winner in last night’s draw, this windfall is changing someone’s life today.
In the Labor Day drawing held on September 4, 2023, the winning numbers were 8, 23, 25, 40, 53, with the Powerball number being 5. Remarkably, this ticket matched all numbers except for the Powerball, making it a substantial win.
The excitement doesn’t stop there! Since no tickets matched all six numbers, the jackpot for the next Powerball drawing on Wednesday has skyrocketed to an astounding $1.3 billion. This ranks as the fifth largest jackpot in Powerball history and the ninth largest in U.S. lottery history.
As of now, the current jackpot run has hit a record 40 consecutive drawings since the last winning ticket was sold in California on May 31, 2025. The longest streak before this was 42 drawings, which ended in April 2024 with a $1.326 billion winner in Oregon.
Players eager to try their luck can choose between two prize options if they win on Wednesday: an annuitized prize of $1.3 billion paid over 30 years or a lump sum payment of approximately $589 million, both before taxes. Winners can select annual payments with a 5% increase each year, or opt for immediate cash.
Don’t miss your chance! Powerball drawings are broadcast live from Tallahassee, Florida, every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday at 10:59 p.m. ET. You can also stream the draws live on Powerball.com.
This recent win has sparked a frenzy of excitement across California, as residents rush to purchase their tickets for the upcoming draw. Who knows? The next big winner could be you!
