The ticket successfully matched all five white ball numbers drawn (5-9-25-28-69) but did not match the red Powerball number (5). The prize was multiplied to $2 million due to the player opting for the Power Play option. A Power Play Match Five (5+0) prize is automatically set at $2,000,000, regardless of the Power Play number selected.
