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.
