After there were no winners emerging yet again for Monday's drawing, the Powerball jackpot is continuing to climb and shatter records.
The lottery jackpot jumped to an estimated $1.73 billion, with a cash value of $756.6 million.
The jackpot is currently the second-largest prize in the Powerball's history. It still has a ways to go to become the largest jackpot ever, a $2 billion winning ticket sold in California in last November.
The last Powerball jackpot to be claimed reached $1.08 billion, when the winning ticket was sold in Los Angeles on July 19, making it the fourth-largest prize in the lottery's history.

How to play Powerball
The Powerball costs $2 per play.
To play, select five numbers from 1 to 69 for the white balls, then select one number from 1 to 26 for the red Powerball.
You can choose your lucky numbers on a play slip or let the lottery terminal randomly pick your numbers.
To win, match one of the nine ways:
- 5 white balls + 1 red Powerball = Grand prize.
- 5 white balls = $1 million.
- 4 white balls + 1 red Powerball = $50,000.
- 4 white balls = $100.
- 3 white balls + 1 red Powerball = $100.
- 3 white balls = $7.
- 2 white balls + 1 red Powerball = $7.
- 1 white ball + 1 red Powerball = $4.
- 1 red Powerball = $4.
There's a chance to have your winnings increased two, three, four, five and 10 times through the Power Play for an additional $1 per play. Players can multiply non-jackpot wins up to 10 times when the jackpot is $150 million or less.
All prizes are set cash amounts, except for the grand prize. In California, prize payout amounts are determined by the sales and the number of winners.
