Lotto: One lucky Aussie wins entire $30 million jackpot in Powerball draw
One Aussie's life changed forever on Thursday evening after they won the eye-watering $30 million Powerball prize. The entire $30,628,398.22 division one amount went to one extremely lucky player. The winning numbers were 2, 25, 6, 4, 31, 34, 19 and the Powerball number was 20. The multimillionaire winner was not from WA, residing elsewhere in the country. Unfortunately, West Aussies weren't too fruitful in division two either; there were 21 winners, each scoring $26,947.75, but they were all from elsewhere in the country. In division three, seven West Aussies won a handy $12,563.50, not to be sniffed at. Perth Now has recently revealed the luckiest Saturday Lotto numbers of the last forty years which may be helpful for any players hedging their bets on Saturday's $30 million mega draw. Many players use Playslips to select their preferred numbers, but most often, it's randomly generated figures at the point of sale that result in Division One wins. In May, a Warnbro couple planned an 'extra luxurious haircut for their beloved dog' after bagging a $1.2 million Saturday Lotto pay day from just a $6.65 Playslip.

Lotto: Luckiest Saturday Lotto numbers of last forty years revealed ahead of $30 million mega draw on July 26
They may be drawn completely at random, but historic records held by Lotterywest reveal some Lotto numbers are in fact luckier than others. Ahead of this Saturday's $30 million Lotto Megadraw, many West Aussies will roll out the same sequence of sentimental digits they always have, whether fruitful in the past or not. But statistically speaking, it might just pay to study the trends instead of banking on your children's birthdays to make you an instant millionaire. Crunching the winning numbers from the past 40 years, from July 1985 to mid-this month, Lotterywest reports the number one itself has been the most frequently drawn, or luckiest, contributing to the winning set of numbers 417 times in that period. The next luckiest figures are eleven and eight, drawn 414 and 407 times, respectively. With a total of 45 numbers available for selection in the popular weekend game, 44 has been statistically the least reliable for players, drawn on just 329 occasions. This represents a 'luck' disparity of 26 per cent between the most and least frequently drawn numbers. And for some, perhaps motivation to rethink 'trusty' 44. See below for the full list of luckiest to least lucky Saturday Lotto numbers (inclusive of draws 413 to 4589). Many players use Playslips to select their preferred numbers, but most often, it's randomly generated figures at the point of sale that result in Division One wins. 'WA players often play using special numbers like meaningful dates, including birthdays or anniversaries, though winning numbers are entirely random,' a Lotterywest spokesperson told The Sunday Times. 'Slikpiks, where numbers are randomly generated by the terminal, are responsible for around 65 per cent of Division One wins across all games. The most popular Saturday Lotto ticket sold in WA is a Slikpik 12, which costs $11.40.' Since the beginning of 2025, 33 tickets sold in WA have resulted in a Division One Saturday Lotto prize. In May, a Warnbro couple planned an 'extra luxurious haircut for their beloved dog' after bagging a $1.2 million Saturday Lotto pay day from just a $6.65 Playslip. With a whopping $30 million on the table this weekend, Lotterywest advises pooling funds with family or friends in a syndicate to maximise the chances of raking in a life-changing haul.
