Texas Lottery Confirms Powerball Winner in Saturday’s Drawing

Lady Luck was once again two-stepping across Texas over the weekend. That means fans of the Texas Lottery and the Powerball game were in for quite a dance when the ping pong balls from Saturday night's drawings finally settled down.

The Texas Lottery has confirmed that three tickets sold in the Lone Star State for the June 29th Powerball game were winners of $50,000 or more.

Powerball game officials did confirm that no single ticket sold across the game's multi-state footprint matched the numbers needed to claim the jackpot prize of $115.5 million. But there were two Match 5 Million prizes awarded on Saturday. Those two big-money tickets were sold in Indiana and New Jersey.

Here is how the Powerball drawing for Saturday, June 29, 2024, played out.

Based on what we saw in the video the Powerball numbers for Saturday's drawing were:

26   51   54   61   69   Powerball 25   Power Play x3

Use those numbers for reference but please verify your numbers at the Official Texas Lottery Website or the Official Powerball Website. Not only can you confirm your winning ticket or tickets at those sites you can also get detailed information on how to claim your prize.

Our sources at the Texas Lottery did confirm three big winners on Saturday. In each case, the winning ticket matched four of the five white balls and the Powerball. By rule that is a prize of $50,000. One of the tickets did have the Power Play option invoked, hence the prize of $150,000 for that ticket.

The Powerball jackpot will be an estimated $125 million for Monday's drawing. Meanwhile Tuesday's Mega Millions multi-state lottery game will draw for a top prize of $137 million. That is the estimated annuitized jackpot amount. The lump sum payout is estimated to be $64.5 million for Mega Millions on Tuesday.
