(KMDL-FM) Just because Powerball gave away almost two billion dollars over the weekend doesn't mean the parade of Powerball winners is coming to a close. No, nothing could be further from the truth. Just ask the folks in charge of writing the checks for Powerball winners with the Louisiana Lottery.

As if the prize procurement people in Baton Rouge at the offices of the Louisiana Lottery weren't busy enough with nine different Powerball winners between September 1st and September 9th. They now have even more checks to write and winner pictures to take because Lady Luck was in Louisiana for a double whammy Powerball win last night.

It's not unusual for Louisiana lottery players to go through a bit of a lull in winning following a huge jackpot prize, such as we saw over the weekend in Powerball. It's all about the number of players. When the jackpot is high, the number of players goes up. When it's not as high, you have just your regular players and only a few "every now and then" ticket buyers.

How Much Was the Powerball Jackpot for Wednesday, September 10, 2025?

Now, let's be honest, none of us would refuse a jackpot win of $35.4 million. But compared to almost $2 billion, I can see why the "excitement" has been toned down just a bit, but we still have money to win, so let's see the Powerball drawing from last night, September 10, 2025.

As you're watching the numbered balls roll out of the hopper and onto your screen, we can tell you that our sources at Powerball did confirm there were no tickets sold across the "fruited Powerball plains" that matched all the numbers needed to win the $34.5 million top prize.

There was a Match  5 Million, actually in this case $2 million winner, that was sold in Washington State. That ticket matched all five of the white ball numbers but did not match the Powerball.

Here's a little-known fact about Powerball drawings when the jackpot is below $150 million. During that time, the Power Play multiplier can go as high as "x10". It's an incentive to get you to play when the jackpot isn't mind-blowing.

Our sources at the Louisiana Lottery tell us that there were 3,885 winning tickets sold in Louisiana for Wednesday's Powerball drawing. Of those winners, 1,530 earned more money via the Power Play option of the game. Let's see if you were one of those winners.

What Were The Powerball Winning Numbers for Wednesday, September 10, 2025?

Here are the Powerball winning numbers for September 10, 2025.

02   24   45   53   64   Powerball 05   Power Play x2

Our people at Powerball tell us the $2 million win in Washington was the night's top prize. The game's second and third highest prizes in last night's drawing were courtesy of the number match scenario "4-white balls and the Powerball". There were 15 tickets that made that match. Five of those had the Power Play option invoked, so their winnings will be $100,000.

The two Louisiana big winners from Wednesday also matched four of five with Powerball, but they did not opt for the Power Play, so each of those Louisiana tickets is worth $50,000 this morning.

The data from Wednesday's Powerball is still being processed, so we do not have point of purchase details for the Louisiana $50,000 Powerball winners right now. That should come later today, and when we get it, we will share it with you.

Did Anyone WIn the Lotto or Easy 5 Jackpots in Louisiana on Wednesday Night?

There were no winners in Lotto or Easy 5 last night. Those jackpots will continue to grow as we move closer to Saturday's drawing. The Lotto jackpot will be $2.275 million, and the jackpot for Easy 5 will be at least $140,000. Both of those games, along with Powerball, will draw again on Saturday.

The Powerball jackpot is estimated to be near $50 million for Saturday's drawing. Meanwhile, Friday's Mega Millions multi-state lottery drawing will be for an estimated $381 million for the annuitized jackpot or $175.0 million for the cash option.
