Powerball will jackpot to a massive $100 million next week.
Tonight’s draw was worth $50 million in division one but no one took out the top prize, the fourth winless draw in a row.
The winning numbers were 30, 2, 5, 25, 16, 32 and 34 with 7 the Powerball.
Lottery organisers expect as many as half of adult Australians to buy an entry for next week’s draw.
The Lott spokesperson Matt Hart said it was only the eighth time the major prize had hit $100 million.
“Could Powerball welcome its first division one winner for 2024 next week if someone scoops the entire pool and wins $100 million? Only time will tell,” he said, in a statement.
“If just one player wins the entire jackpot, they’ll not only receive a massive boost to their bank account, but they’ll also share the crown of Australia’s second biggest individual lottery winner ever.”
Winner of $750k jackpot bought a single $1 ticket
Three Australians shared the $90 million Oz Lotto jackpot on Boxing Day.
Entries are available until 7.30pm next Thursday.
