Powerball Reset to $20 Million After Louisiana Lottery Draw
The louisiana lottery Powerball jackpot reset to $20 million for the Monday, May 4 drawing after two jackpot wins on consecutive dates. The new top prize carried a $9 million cash value, and no one won the jackpot in Monday’s drawing.
Matt Strawn on Powerball
Matt Strawn, the Powerball Product Group chair and Iowa Lottery CEO, said, "This was an incredible week for Powerball players across the country," after the streak of winners on Wednesday, April 29 and Saturday, May 2. Powerball said the jackpot had not been hit on back-to-back nights since 2021.
On Wednesday, April 29, players in Indiana and Kansas won a $143 million jackpot. Two players in Texas and Florida then won the jackpot on Saturday, May 2, which set up the reset for Monday’s drawing.
Monday, May 4 Numbers
The winning numbers for Monday, May 4 were 30, 36, 42, 60 and 63, with Powerball 13 and a 2x Power Play multiplier. No ticket matched the jackpot, the $2 million Match 5 + Power Play prize, or the $1 million Match 5 prize.
Powerball Tickets Across 45 States
Powerball tickets can be bought in 45 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands through authorized and licensed retailers. For players who had tickets in the May 4 drawing, the immediate result was a rollover from the $20 million level after a run of wins that shortened the climb to the next jackpot.
That pattern matters for anyone following the game closely: two jackpots were hit on April 29 and May 2, then the May 4 drawing produced no winner, pushing the prize forward again. The last sentence for players is simple — check the numbers, and if none matched, the jackpot moves on from $20 million.
