A look back at what has already been drawn. Every draw is independent.

Free to explore. No account needed to look around.

How often each number has appeared across the 15 most recent Powerball draws, drawn Monday, Wednesday & Saturday. Frequency is a look back at what has already been drawn; every future draw is independent.

Powerball spreads five picks across a large 1 to 69 pool and draws only three nights a week, so any single number appears just a handful of times in a recent window. That makes the ranking on this page a snapshot of the current sample rather than a settled order; the Powerball itself is counted in its own 1 to 26 pool.

Latest results as of Nov 11, 2026. Updated daily.

The Powerball, drawn from its own 1 to 26 pool, came up as 20, 21 and 23 most often, 2 times each in 15 draws.

Powerball: counted in its own pool

The Powerball comes out of a second machine with its own 26-number range, so it is tallied separately from the main numbers rather than mixed into them.

Why the red Powerball swings harder than the white balls

One red Powerball is drawn per draw, from 1 to 26, while the white balls are five drawn from 1 to 69. Each draw gives a red number one chance in 26 and a white number five in 69, so over 300 draws a red number has a fair share of about 11.5 appearances and a white number about 21.7: the red pool works from roughly half the baseline.

That halved baseline is the whole story. A single extra appearance moves a red number about 9 percent of its fair share and a white number only about 5 percent: the same event, twice the visible movement on the chart. Waiting works the same way. A red number sits out 25 draws in every 26, so its typical gap between appearances is around 26 draws, while a white number comes back roughly every 14. Long silences are not an anomaly in the red pool; they are the shape of it.

A long gap, measured against its own pool

A gap only reads honestly next to the pool it comes from. A red number away for 100 draws is about four times its typical wait, while a white number away for 80 draws is closer to six times its own. The loudest gap in the game is not always the strangest one in it.

And a gap is not a countdown. The machine reloads all 26 red balls and all 69 white balls before every draw, so each draw is a fresh deck rather than one being dealt down, and a long absence describes only what has already happened.

One question, two windows

Over a short window, the last 30 to 100 draws, some numbers genuinely lead the count, and the lead changes constantly. Randomness is streaky, the same reason a fair coin throws runs of heads. Over the full history, every white ball and every red ball trends toward the same share of draws, because certified draw equipment has no favorites.

A long-run tally carries one more wrinkle: Powerball's pools have changed. The white pool became 1 to 69 and the red pool 1 to 26 in 2015 (the white pool was 1 to 59 before), so a number that has been in the pool longer has simply had more chances to appear. That is why this page counts the recent published draws against today's pools, and why the side-by-side hot and cold table reads each game against its own.

Questions people ask

What are the most common Powerball numbers right now?
The ranking on this page orders every main number by how many times it has appeared across the most recent published Powerball draws. With a 1 to 69 pool and three draws a week, the counts stay close together, so read the order as a recent sample rather than a fixed list.
How many draws does this Powerball frequency cover?
It covers the most recent published Powerball draws in our public window, shown on the page. That is a small sample for a 1 to 69 pool, so the order shifts as new draws land; the full multi-year frequency is in the app.
Why does the Powerball chart look streakier than the white ball chart?
Because its pool is smaller. One number is drawn from 26 rather than five from 69, so over 300 draws each red number has a fair share of about 11.5 appearances against about 21.7 for a white ball. With half the baseline, a single appearance moves a red number roughly twice as far on the chart, and its typical wait between appearances is about 26 draws against roughly 14 for a white one.
Have Powerball's number pools changed?
Yes. The white pool became 1 to 69 and the Powerball 1 to 26 in 2015. A long-run count partly reflects how long each number has been in the pool, which is why this page counts the recent published draws against today's pools.
