Powerball's jackpot climbed to an estimated $856 million after no ticket matched all six numbers in the Wednesday, Aug. 5 drawing, with a cash value estimated at $372 million. The winning numbers were 14, 20, 59, 60 and 61, with Powerball 25 and a 2x Power Play. No one won the jackpot or the $2 million Match 5 + Power Play prize, but one ticket in Ohio won the $1 million Match 5 prize. The next drawing is set for Aug. 8 at about 10:59 p.m. ET. U.S. jackpot winners can choose a lump-sum cash payment or 30 annual payments that rise 5% each year, while U.K. participants buy into the shared jackpot under a separate lower-tier prize structure and receive jackpot payouts over 30 years through the U.K. National Lottery.
