Powerball Numbers 2010

Last updated: Jul 27, 2026, 8:15 PM ET

This page holds the Powerball numbers for every 2010 drawing — 95 drawings, from Wednesday, February 3, 2010 through Wednesday, December 29, 2010, newest first. Each row carries the five white balls, the red Powerball, and the Power Play multiplier where the source publishes one, and each date links to that drawing's own page with prize tiers and a full breakdown. If you are holding a ticket dated 2010, the Powerball numbers you need are one row away.

What the Powerball Numbers 2010 Page Is For

Almost nobody reads a year of Powerball numbers for fun. The real use case is a specific old ticket: one found in a coat pocket, a glovebox, a drawer of receipts, or an office-pool envelope, printed with a 2010 draw date and never checked against the Powerball numbers from its drawing night. Claim periods are set by the state that sold the ticket and run from 90 days to a full year after the drawing date, so depending on when in 2010 the drawing fell — and which state you bought in — a ticket from this year may still be live, may be days from expiring, or may already be past its deadline. The first step in every one of those cases is the same: find the drawing date printed on the ticket and read the Powerball numbers for that exact night.

That is what this page is built to make fast. Rather than paging through the full archive or guessing at a URL, every set of 2010 Powerball numbers sits in one table you can scan or search with your browser's find-on-page. The second step — confirming what the match is worth and whether the claim window is open — belongs to the drawing's own page and to your state lottery, in that order.

How to Read the 2010 Drawing Table

The table lists the 2010 Powerball numbers newest first, so January sits at the bottom. The five numbers in the middle column are the white balls; they match a ticket in any order. The bold number is the red Powerball, drawn from its own pool, and it must match your ticket's red number exactly — a white ball that happens to equal it does not count. The last column is the Power Play multiplier for that night, which only affects tickets that paid the extra dollar for the add-on. A dash in that column means the source feed does not publish a multiplier for that drawing, not that the multiplier was zero.

Match the printed draw date first, before you look at a single number. Tickets bought after a state's evening sales cutoff belong to the next drawing, so the purchase date and the draw date can disagree — the printed draw date is the authority. Once you have the right set of Powerball numbers, click the date to open that drawing's full page, which spells out all nine prize tiers and what each one paid.

The Powerball Numbers for Every 2010 Drawing

The Number Pool Behind the 2010 Powerball Numbers

Every set of Powerball numbers drawn in 2010 came out of a smaller white-ball pool than the one the game uses today. Powerball moved to its current matrix — five white balls from a pool of 69 and a red Powerball from a pool of 26 — for drawings on and after October 7, 2015, so all of 2010 sits on the older side of that line. The winning numbers in the table are exactly what was drawn, under the rules in force that night; nothing has been restated to fit today's format.

The practical warning is about statistics, not lookups. If you are counting how often a ball appeared, do not mix 2010 Powerball numbers with modern drawings: balls in the two eras did not have an equal opportunity to appear, so a combined frequency table is comparing unlike things. Our frequency page scopes its counts to the current matrix for precisely this reason. For checking a ticket dated 2010, none of this matters — the drawn numbers are the drawn numbers.

Power Play in the 2010 Table

The Power Play column shows the multiplier drawn alongside the main numbers each night. It only matters if the ticket you are checking paid the extra dollar for Power Play: in that case non-jackpot prizes are multiplied by the figure shown, except Match 5, which becomes a fixed $2 million rather than being multiplied. Power Play never touches the jackpot. If your ticket did not carry the add-on, read the Powerball numbers and ignore the last column entirely.

Checking a Ticket From 2010

You do not have to compare the numbers by eye. The manual ticket checker takes your five white balls, your red Powerball, and the drawing date, and its date field reaches every drawing in this archive — back to 2010, which covers all of 2010. It compares your line against the Powerball numbers for that exact date and reports the prize tier your line hit and what that tier paid, including the Power Play multiplier where the drawing has one, which beats holding nine prize rules in your head while squinting at a faded ticket.

If a 2010 ticket turns out to be a winner, the order of operations matters more than usual, because the clock may be nearly out. Sign the back of the ticket, then contact the lottery of the state that sold it — not the state you live in now, if those differ — and ask two questions: is this ticket still inside its claim window, and how do I validate it. This site tells you what Powerball numbers were drawn in 2010; only the selling state's lottery can validate a ticket, extend nothing, and pay what is owed.

Where 2010 Sits in the Archive

The archive runs continuously from 2010 to the current drawing — one page of Powerball numbers per year, and one page per individual drawing. From here you can step no further back — 2010 is where the dataset beginsforward to the Powerball numbers for 2011. For a flat recent-drawings view use the drawing history page, and for tonight's numbers and the live countdown go to the main results hub.
