A Queensland Powerball player is in for a life-changing surprise as they have won $100 million in the latest jackpot, becoming one of the biggest lottery winners in Australian history. The winning ticket was purchased at an outlet on Brisbane’s north side, and the mystery winner has yet to come forward to claim their prize. The Lott is encouraging all residents and visitors in Brisbane to check their tickets and see if they are the lucky winner.
The spokesperson for The Lott, Anna Hobdell, expressed excitement over the massive win and urged the winner to check their ticket as soon as possible. The winning numbers for the draw were 16, 24, 11, 4, 10, 18, and 23, with the Powerball number being 6. Along with the $100 million division one prize, there were 3,389,212 wins across divisions two to nine, totaling $67,789,677.20. Additionally, there were 10 division two winners who each received $188,606.60.
This win makes the lucky winner the equal third-biggest lottery winner in Australian history, joining the ranks of other multimillion-dollar winners. The Lott anticipated a high level of participation in the draw, with up to half of the Australian adult population expected to enter. With odds of one in 134,490,400 of getting all seven numbers and the Powerball correct, winning such a large sum of money is extremely rare.
