A lucky player in Pennsylvania has won the $213.8 million Powerball jackpot from Monday's drawing.
Monday's win was the sixth time the Powerball jackpot has been won this year, according to the lottery. It was last won this year July 3, when a player in Ohio won the $139.3 million jackpot.
The winner will have the choice of an annuitized prize of $213.8 million, or a lump sum payment of $106.4 million, before taxes. If they choose the annuity option, they'll receive one immediate payment followed by 29 annual payments that increase by 5% each year, the lottery says.
After Monday's win, the Powerball jackpot has since reset to $20 million with a cash value of $10 million ahead of Wednesday's drawing.
The winning numbers were drawn just after 11 p.m. ET on Monday, and we have the results for the other prizes that were available below.
