Someone has taken out the $100m Powerball draw
Someone has become Australia's third biggest lottery winner ever, after taking out the entire $100 million jackpot in the Powerball draw. The winning division one ticket was sold at one of The Lott's outlets in Sydney's eastern suburbs. The winner was not registered and their identity remained a mystery on Friday morning. "Someone has become an overnight mid-week multi-millionaire but possibly doesn't know it yet," The Lott spokesperson Matt Hart said. "All Sydney players who had an entry in this week's draw should check their ticket as soon as possible." There were also more than three million wins across divisions two to nine in Thursday's Powerball, collectively taking home almost $61 million in prize money. Some six division two winners each picked up more than $282,000. About 10 million Australians were expected to take a punt on winning the $100 million top prize. The last time a jackpot of that magnitude was up for grabs, ticket sales peaked at more than 6400 a minute. A Queensland woman was the last person to take home $100 million in February 2024, pocketing half of a $200 million Powerball jackpot. She later moved from Brisbane to the coast. "On a day-to-day basis, not a huge amount has changed," she said this week ahead of Thursday night's draw. "I still get up for the 6am gym session and the dog still needs to be walked and fed." An Adelaide man still holds the country's largest pay cheque from a lottery jackpot, after winning $150 million in May 2024. The odds of a single entry winning the division-one prize are more than 134 million to one. The winning numbers on Thursday were 28, 10, 3, 16, 31, 14 and 21 and the all-important Powerball number was 6.
