Monday’s Powerball jackpot is worth an estimated $810 million and there is one lucky winner in Michigan.
The winning numbers for the first Powerball drawing of the new year were: 12, 21, 42, 44, 49 and a Powerball of 1.
The pot was ranked as the fifth-largest Powerball jackpot and 10th-largest U.S. lottery jackpot in history, according to the Multi-State Lottery Association. However, the odds of winning it are just as slim as ever, about 1 in 292.2 million.

With the annuity option, players will get one immediate payment followed by 29 annual payments that increase by 5% each year, lottery officials said.
