At a glance: October 28 Powerball numbers were 11, 13, 16, 47, 60 and Powerball 13, with 2x Power Play. Ohio recorded one $50,000 winner; no jackpot ticket won.

The official Powerball numbers for Wednesday, October 28, 2026 were 11, 13, 16, 47 and 60, with Powerball 13 and a 2x Power Play multiplier. The drawing's estimated jackpot was $723 million, with an advertised cash value of $310.2 million. Powerball's results show no jackpot-winning ticket nationwide.

Did anyone in Ohio win a Powerball prize?

Yes. The official Powerball results page filtered for Ohio lists one $50,000 winner in the match-four-white-balls-plus-Powerball tier for the October 28 drawing. It lists no Ohio $1 million Match 5 winner and no $2 million Match 5 plus Power Play winner.

That means there was a significant prize in Ohio, but it does not mean an Ohio resident won the $723 million jackpot. A prize-tier count also does not identify the ticket holder or where the ticket was purchased. No verified winner's name or store location is provided in the cited result.

What were the exact October 28 Powerball numbers?

The five white balls were 11 – 13 – 16 – 47 – 60. The red Powerball was 13, and Power Play was 2x. The repeated number 13 is not an error: the red Powerball comes from a separate set of balls, so it can match one of the five white-ball values.

Powerball also has a separate Double Play option in some jurisdictions. Players should not mix numbers from a Double Play drawing with the main Powerball drawing when checking a ticket.

What does the $723 million jackpot figure mean?

The $723 million amount was the estimated annuity jackpot advertised for the drawing. The $310.2 million figure was the estimated cash-value alternative before taxes. They are two different payout methods for the same jackpot, not amounts that would be paid together. Because no ticket matched all six main-draw numbers, neither amount was awarded as a jackpot for this drawing.

Actual take-home amounts on any future winning jackpot depend on the payout election, federal tax rules and the winner's state and personal circumstances. A headline cash value is not a promise of an after-tax payment.

How can Ohio players check and claim a prize?

Compare the printed numbers and the draw date on your ticket with the official Powerball Ohio result. Check whether Power Play was purchased and keep the original ticket secure. Claims and deadlines are handled by the lottery jurisdiction where the ticket was sold; the multi-state results page is not a substitute for the Ohio Lottery's claim instructions.

What should readers avoid assuming?

Do not treat a viral “Ohio jackpot winner” claim as proof of a jackpot payout: the official October 28 record says there was none. Nor should a social-media screenshot or an unofficial app override the recorded draw. Anyone claiming a prize should use the official lottery channels and never pay a stranger an advance fee to collect winnings.
