$2 million Powerball ticket sold online to Pennsylvania Lottery player

Middletown, PA — A Pennsylvania Lottery player just doubled their fortune by activating Power Play, turning a $1 million Powerball win into a $2 million payday on a ticket purchased online for Monday night’s drawing.

The winning ticket matched all five white balls — 3, 29, 42, 46, 59 — but missed the red Powerball number 15. Because the player opted for the $1 Power Play add-on, their prize was automatically doubled to $2 million. The Power Play multiplier drawn was three.

The win came from the September 22 Powerball drawing and must be claimed in person at Lottery Headquarters, as required for any online win over $600. Winners remain unknown until the claim process is completed and the ticket is validated.

More than 16,500 additional Pennsylvania Lottery Powerball tickets won prizes in the same drawing, including over 4,000 purchased with Power Play and more than 2,600 with Double Play.

The Powerball jackpot now stands at an estimated $127 million annuity — or $59 million cash — for the next drawing scheduled for Wednesday, September 24.

Players have the option to purchase Powerball tickets online or through authorized retailers across the state. Tickets must be claimed within one year of the drawing date.
