August 5, 2026 Powerball Results: $1M Winner in Ohio, Jackpot Rolls On

The jackpot survived, but the draw still produced a major winner: a $1M Match 5 ticket in Ohio.

Last updated:

The draw's strongest angle is the non-jackpot winner in Ohio who hit Match 5. That prize does not end the jackpot run, but it still creates a real tax-planning problem.

The winning numbers were 14, 20, 59, 60, 61 and Powerball 25, with Power Play 2x. The white balls totaled 214, with an odd/even split of 2/3 and a low/high split of 2/3.

With no grand-prize winner, the jackpot is now set to roll to $905M for Saturday, Aug 8.

While the jackpot remains elusive, it was still a life-changing night for a player in Ohio who hit Match 5 for $1M.
