CINNAMINSON, NJ — Another Powerball drawing passed without a winner, pushing the jackpot to the third-highest in the game's history. But a lottery player in Cinnaminson still earned some winnings.

The winning numbers were 23, 35, 45, 66 and 67, with a Red Power Ball number of 20. The Power Play was 3X.

Meanwhile, the Powerball jackpot reached an estimated $875 million as of Thursday, with a cash option of $441.9 million. The odds of winning Saturday's contest are 1 in 292.2 million.

The largest-ever Powerball jackpot was a $2.04 billion prize last November. Nobody has won the Powerball jackpot since April 19, when the top prize hit $251 million.

If a New Jersey participant wins the current jackpot, they would crush the record for the largest lottery prize in state history — a $533 million jackpot from a 2018 Mega Millions contest. The winner took the cash option of $324 million, which became nearly $175 million after taxes, according to lotto.com.

Powerball is available in 45 states, along with Washington, D.C., Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.

The drawings occur at 10:59 p.m. every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday. Participants must purchase tickets at least an hour before each contest.
