Single ticket scoops entire mammoth $70m Oz Lotto pool
A single winner has claimed Tuesday night's mammoth $70m Oz Lotto draw, with their life changed in an instant. The $70 million first division prize is the second-richest of any Australian lottery game this year, and Oz Lotto's fourth richest prize ever. The winning numbers for draw 1633 are 44, 34, 45, 1, 46, 25 and 21. The supplementary numbers are 9, 14 and 16. Gaming authorities predicted one in five Australians would snap up a ticket for the chance to secure a slice of — if not all — of the huge jackpot. 'If one person takes home the entire $70 million prize, they'll be crowned the second-biggest Australian lottery winner so far in 2025 and Oz Lotto's second-biggest individual lottery winner ever,' The Lott spokesperson Matt Hart said this week. 'Previous big Oz Lotto winners have greeted their multimillion-dollar prizes with stunned silence, hysterical laughter and tears of joy. Who knows how someone might react on Tuesday night if they win the entire $70 million jackpot.' Three Oz Lotto division one wins totalling $185 million had been written into the books already this year. A $70 million Oz Lotto jackpot was won earlier this year by a 15-share syndicate in Queensland , with each taking home a $4.7 million slice. A western Sydney woman made history with a $100 million win in February , the game's most lucrative prize ever. 'Who is this? Why are you calling this late?' the winner told The Lotto when contacted after the draw. 'What the hell! Can you repeat that? Oh my god! Don't lie to me!' Just a few weeks later, $15 million was claimed by a North Queensland man.
