Powerball Draws 3-4-24-36-47 for $600 Million Jackpot

Q: Did anyone in California quietly claim a smaller prize from the July 25 draw despite the massive jackpot rolling over?

Yes. Even though no one in California won the July 25 Powerball jackpot, the state lottery reported thousands of smaller winning tickets from that draw. According to the California Lottery’s detailed results page for July 25, there was no jackpot winner in California, but there were 75,269 winning Powerball tickets statewide. That included two tickets matching four white balls plus the Powerball, each worth $21,636 under California’s pari-mutuel prize system. There were also 53 tickets matching four white balls for $408 each, 138 tickets matching three white balls plus the Powerball for $162, and thousands of lower-tier winners collecting smaller amounts. What cannot be confirmed from the available reporting is whether any of those winners had already “quietly claimed” their prizes. The materials tied to the draw provide the winning numbers and payout counts, along with general claim rules, but they do not identify individual claimants or show whether a specific small-prize ticket had been redeemed yet. So the evidence shows that Californians did win smaller prizes in the July 25 draw despite the jackpot rollover. But there is no public confirmation in the provided sources that a particular California player had already quietly claimed one of those prizes.

Q: With the $600 million Powerball jackpot rolling over, how high will the massive prize soar for the July 27 drawing?

The Powerball jackpot for the Monday, July 27, 2026 drawing is expected to rise to about **$633 million**, with an estimated **cash value of $277.3 million**. That projection follows Saturday night’s drawing, when no ticket matched all six numbers — **3, 4, 24, 36, 47 and Powerball 17** — sending the advertised **$600 million** jackpot into another rollover. Multiple lottery result pages and state lottery postings indicate there was no grand-prize winner on July 25. The exact figure is ultimately set by Powerball officials based on ticket sales and prize pool calculations, so estimates can shift slightly before the drawing. But the most consistent posted estimate for July 27 is **$633 million**, which would push the jackpot even higher into the year’s biggest lottery prizes. The rollover continues a months-long climb that began after the last Powerball jackpot win on **May 2, 2026**, when tickets in Florida and Texas split a $20 million prize. Since then, the jackpot has steadily grown through repeated drawings without a top-prize winner. For players, the next drawing is scheduled for **Monday, July 27, at about 10:59 p.m. ET**. Powerball tickets cost **$2**, with optional add-ons such as **Power Play** available for an extra dollar.

$600 million was on the line when Powerball drew 3-4-24-36-47, with red Powerball 17 and a 4x Power Play, on Saturday night.
The jackpot reached that level after Wednesday's drawing produced no ticket matching all five white balls plus the Powerball.
$2 tickets were sold across 45 U.S. states, Washington, D.C., Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands for the drawing.
Powerball said the game has also expanded into the United Kingdom, potentially enlarging the player pool and supporting bigger jackpots ahead.
Odds remain steep: 1 in 24.9 to win any prize and 1 in 292.2 million to hit the jackpot.
