A record-breaking $1.787 billion Powerball jackpot was split between two winning tickets sold in Missouri and Texas. Each winner can choose between an annuitized prize of $893.5 million or a lump sum of $410.3 million (pre-tax). Two other tickets won $2 million each, and 18 more won $1 million. The winning numbers were 11, 23, 44, 61, 62, with a Powerball of 17. The jackpot win ends a 42-drawing streak without a winner. The next Powerball jackpot starts at $20 million.
