NY Lottery Results: Tonight’s Winning Numbers Revealed—See if You’re New York’s Next Millionaire
• Hot Trendy News
The New York Lottery is fueling holiday excitement as the Powerball jackpot climbs to an estimated $719 million for the next drawing on Saturday, November 29, 2025, marking one of the 10-largest prizes in U.S. history. Ticket sales have surged statewide all week, with retailers from Buffalo to Brooklyn reporting pre-Thanksgiving lines as players chase a cash-value option of roughly $348 million before taxes.
How to play Powerball in New York
• Tickets cost $2 and are sold until 10 p.m. ET on draw nights.
• Players select five numbers from 1–69 and one Powerball from 1–26; adding Power Play for $1 can multiply non-jackpot prizes up to 10×.
• Overall odds of winning any prize are 1 in 24.9, while the odds of claiming the jackpot remain 1 in 292.2 million.
Recent NY Lottery highlights
• Mega Millions resets to $20 million after a single ticket in Florida hit the $162 million prize last Friday.
• New York Lotto’s Wednesday draw rolled to $11.2 million, its highest level since July.
• Take 5 continues twice-daily at 2:30 p.m. and 10:30 p.m., popular with players seeking better odds of 1 in 9 for any prize.
Where the money goes
The New York Lottery remains the largest and most profitable in North America, contributing $3.7 billion to K-12 education in fiscal year 2023 alone. Funds are distributed to school districts based on size and income, meaning larger, lower-income communities receive proportionally higher aid.
Claiming prizes
Jackpot winners can choose between a 30-year annuity paid in graduated installments or a lump-sum cash payment. For prizes of $600 or less, most retailers pay out immediately; prizes above that threshold must be claimed at Lottery Customer Service Centers or by mail. Winners have one year from the draw date to claim.
Responsible play resources
New Yorkers experiencing gambling issues can call the confidential HOPEline at 1-877-8-HOPENY or text HOPENY (467369). Self-exclusion programs and counseling are available 24/7.
Key dates and viewing options
• Watch Powerball draws live Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays at 10:59 p.m. ET on ABC 7 New York and the official Powerball stream.
• Mega Millions airs Tuesdays and Fridays at 11:00 p.m. ET.
• Daily Numbers, Win 4, Take 5, and Pick 10 are streamed twice daily at 2:30 p.m. and 10:30 p.m. on the NY Lottery website and television partners.
With a record-setting jackpot on the line, experts advise players to secure tickets early, sign the back immediately, and store them safely. Even if the grand prize eludes you, nine prize tiers mean thousands of New Yorkers typically wake up winners after every draw. Good luck, and remember: it only takes one ticket to change your life—while every ticket sold helps support public schools across the Empire State.
