The Powerball jackpot has soared to an estimated $643 million, marking one of the largest prizes of the year. This increase comes after no one won in the most recent Monday night drawing. Players are eagerly awaiting the next drawing as the jackpot continues its unprecedented climb, remaining unclaimed for nearly four months. In related news, while the jackpot remains elusive, some players have still won significant amounts, such as an $80,000 ticket sold in California and a $150,000 winner in Texas.
