KENTUCKY — A Kentucky Lottery player won $50,000 in the Monday, Feb. 16, 2026, Powerball drawing after matching four numbers and the Powerball.
The winning numbers were 16, 18, 19, 56 and 58, with the Powerball number 6. The Power Play multiplier for the drawing was 3x. The estimated jackpot stood at $155 million, with a cash value of $72.5 million.
The $50,000 prize is awarded to tickets that match four of the five white ball numbers plus the Powerball. There was no immediate indication that the Kentucky ticket included the Power Play option, which can increase non-jackpot prizes when selected.
No ticket matched all six numbers to win the jackpot, meaning the top prize will roll over to the next Powerball drawing.
Lottery officials have not yet released information about where in Kentucky the winning ticket was sold. Winners must claim their prizes within the time frame set by Kentucky Lottery rules.
