New Powerball numbers were drawn Saturday, Aug. 12, but no ticket with all the winning numbers was sold, according to KABC.

Saturday’s numbers were 20, 24, 26, 35, 49 and the Powerball was 19. PowerPlay was 2X. According to Powerball, 2,135,508 players nationwide won more than $19.4 million. No player won a jackpot.

The jackpot amount was $365 million for Saturday’s drawing. The current estimated jackpot is $430 million. The next drawing is Wednesday. The odds of matching every number and the Powerball, as explained on the lottery’s website, are 1 in 293 million.

There are two tickets sold with five numbers, but not the Powerball, KABC reported. They are worth slightly under $811,000.

A local store owner told the AJC ticket sales usually pick up once the jackpot passes $200 million.
