Two More Powerball Jackpot Winners as Streak Continues

The massive shared prize quickly reset the game’s top prize to an enticing $20 million—but that fresh jackpot proved short-lived, vanishing in dramatic fashion during the very next drawing. The New Jackpot Falls Immediately: Two Winners Split $20 Million On Saturday, May 2, 2026, history repeated itself in thrilling style. Two independent players—one in Florida and one in Texas—matched all six winning numbers to claim the $20 million jackpot (with a cash value of approximately $9 million). Each winner will receive half the prize, offering a choice between an annuitized payout of $10 million or a lump-sum cash option of about $4.5 million before taxes.

Winning numbers for May 2, 2026:
25 • 37 • 42 • 52 • 65
Powerball: 14
Power Play: 3xThe excitement didn’t stop there. A sharp player in Georgia matched the five white balls and activated the Power Play multiplier, turning a standard $1 million Match 5 prize into a cool $2 million windfall.

Additionally:

• 10 players matched four white balls + Powerball for $50,000 each.
• One lucky ticket with Power Play boosted that to $150,000.
