Powerball numbers May 18: one Virginia ticket wins $2 million

Powerball numbers – The May 18 Powerball draw produced numbers 4, 13, 34, 61, 65 with Powerball 12 and a Power Play multiplier of 2x. One ticket in Virginia matched all five white balls and won $2 million—while no tickets hit the $101 million jackpot.
Late Monday night’s Powerball draw didn’t deliver the kind of win most people picture—the jackpot stayed unclaimed. For the May 18, 2026 drawing, the five white balls were 4, 13, 34, 61 and 65, with the Powerball number 12. The Power Play multiplier came up 2x.
The top prize of $101 million from that Monday, May 18 Powerball drawing went to nobody. The absence of a jackpot winner means the game moves forward with more money on the line.
A single ticket did get the kind of payoff that still changes lives. One ticket sold in Virginia matched all five white balls and had the Power Play for a $2 million jackpot.
For anyone checking their tickets right now, the next step is simple: the next Powerball drawing is scheduled for 10:59 p.m. ET on Wednesday, May 20, 2026. The jackpot estimate for that drawing is $113 million, with a cash value of $49.6 million.
Powerball drawings happen every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday, and they can be watched live on the Powerball website. Tickets cost $2 per play, and Power Play—multiplying non-jackpot prizes by 2, 3, 4, 5 or 10 times—adds $1 per play.
If you’re trying to figure out whether you matched any numbers, the winning results can be checked through the Ohio Lottery or the official Powerball website.
