Powerball has soared to a mighty $100m after no entries claimed the jackpot on Thursday. The winning numbers were 1, 30, 12, 34, 24, 9, 6 and the Powerball 10. Six people around the nation took home $121,979 each in the division two prize pool. It was the week's second biggest draw after a Tasmanian man became an instant multi-millionaire scoring $70m on Tuesday. The fortunate Tasmanian man who claimed the entire division one prize earlier this week said he planned to retire immediately, purchase a dream home with his partner and support his family. 'Oh, this is brilliant, absolutely brilliant … I've had a (rough) couple of years,' he said. 'I am just getting back on my feet, and I still have a mortgage when everyone else (my age) is about to retire. I have been saying I will have to work until I am 70, but not now.' Powerball is Australia's biggest jackpot lottery that has seen 21 people win a total of $524m division one prize pools this year. Last year, a man from South Australia claimed the game's biggest ever individual lottery win in Australia taking home a huge $150m. The luckiest numbers drawn in Powerball are 9, 7, 17, 11, 3, 23 and 2. The least drawn numbers are 33, 31, 29, 15, 13, 26 and 8.
