No one matched all six numbers in Saturday night's Powerball drawing, meaning the jackpot will continue to grow after last week's historic $1.04 billion win in Illinois.
The next Powerball drawing is set for Monday, Aug. 17, with an estimated $35 million jackpot and a $15.2 million cash option. The current prize comes just days after a single ticket won the game's eighth-largest jackpot, ending a months-long run that pushed the top prize past the billion dollar mark.

Powerball expands to the United Kingdom
Powerball is now available in the United Kingdom, marking the game's biggest expansion in years and potentially bringing millions of new players into future drawings.
The U.K. version differs from the U.S. game in several ways. Tickets cost £4, compared with $2 in the U.S., and non-jackpot prizes are paid through a separate prize structure. U.S. jackpot winners can choose between a lump sum payment or annual installments over 30 years, while U.K. jackpot winners receive annual payments through the U.K. National Lottery.
