No Big Louisiana Powerball Winner as Jackpot Grows to Estimated $810 Million
Another drawing in the Powerball last night has yielded no grand prize winner. The grand prize amount for the December 30, 2023 drawing was a whopping $786 million.
The winning numbers drawn last night were as follows:
10, 11, 26, 27, 34 and the Powerball was 7 and the Power Play was 4x.
The next drawing will be on Monday, January 1, 2024, and the estimated jackpot will be $810 million with a cash value of $409.9 million.
Across the country, though, there were some big-money winners. A total of five players won $1 million while another two players raked in $2 million. (This took getting all five white balls and just missing the red Powerball. The latter two had the Power Play added to their tickets.)
There were no big money winners in Louisiana though. The top prize won in The Bayou State was $400 as six players scored that amount.
Below is the breakdown of winners in Louisiana:
