The winning Powerball numbers for Monday, April 20, 2026, were 09-17-36-47-64, with Powerball 26 and a 3X Power Play. The estimated jackpot was $87 million, with a lump sum payment before taxes of about $39.7 million.
The drawing came two weeks after a lucky player in Delaware won $231 million in the April 6 Powerball drawing, a prize that reset the game’s top end and sent the jackpot climbing again. Powerball is played in 45 states, the District of Columbia, the U.S. Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico, and drawings are held at 10:59 p.m. Eastern on Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays.
For players who buy the optional Double Play add-on in select locations, the same numbers can carry into a separate drawing that follows the regular one and offers a top cash prize of $10 million. The feature is sold in 13 lottery jurisdictions, including Pennsylvania and Michigan, but it is not available everywhere Powerball is sold.
That is the part that keeps the game moving: a $2 ticket still offers a 1 in 292.2 million shot at the jackpot, while the deadline to get in for a drawing is 9:45 p.m. The April 20 numbers settled one night’s result, but they also pushed the next drawing closer, with the jackpot still in play for anyone holding a ticket bought before the cutoff.
