The Powerball's estimated $1.7 billion is up for grabs in Wednesday's Christmas Eve drawing after no ticket matched all numbers Monday. Monday's numbers were 3, 18, 36, 41 and 54 with a Powerball of 7 and a 2x Power Play.
Outside of those lucky states – California, Florida, New Hampshire, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Washington, and Wyoming – USA Mega’s analysis found Arizona is the best state to win the Powerball jackpot. There, a winner would get about $444.9 million from the cash prize or $969.3 million after all 30 annuitized prizes.
