Winning $60m lotto numbers revealed
The numbers are in for Thursday’s $60 million Powerball, with no one taking home the division one prize money.
To take home the tens of millions in cash, you would’ve had to have winning numbers 19, 14, 18, 22, 16, 4, and 33 with the Powerball of 18.
With no one taking home the division one prize, it will be jackpotted to next week’s draw 1420.
It comes as the suburbs with the highest number of lottery wins this year have been revealed, with two suburbs selling five division one winning tickets.
Australia has had 503 division one winning entries from all lottery games worth more than $1.59 billion in prize money.
Victoria took out the crown of most wins, with 137 division one prizes handed out in the state worth more than $409 million, while NSW and the ACT won the most money, $563 million from 130 wins.
The luckiest suburb by far was Kalgoorlie in Western Australia, with a whopping five division one winning entries, followed by Nerand and Morayfield in Queensland which each had four division one entries.
With Victoria scoring the most number of wins out of all the states, it’s no surprise that several of its suburbs have sold three division one winning tickets this year.
Melbourne’s CBD, Springvale South, Endeavour Hills, Doreen, Wyndham and Lalor are the lotto win hot spots for Victoria.
Some lotto players will buy tickets from luckier outlets in the hope of continuing the winning streak, while others deliberately choose different outlets believing that lightning won’t strike twice according to The Lott spokepserson Matt Hart.
“While we saw pockets of major lottery prizes across Australian states and territories last financial year, it’s important to remember that a division one win can land anywhere at any time,” he said.
“During the past twelve months, we’ve seen the history books rewritten with Australia’s biggest ever lottery jackpot – the $160 million Powerball draw – and a new titleholder for Australia‘s second-biggest individual lottery winner – last month’s $100 million Powerball winner.”
Up to one in six Australian adults are expected to have an entry in this Thursday‘s $60 million Powerball draw according to Mr Hart.
Each state and territory had suburbs that were luckier than others, here is the full list:
In Victoria, six postcodes each sold three division one winning entries: 3172 for Springvale South / Dingley Village, 3802 for Endeavour Hills, 3754 for Doreen / Mernda, 3024 for Wyndham, 3075 for Lalor and 3000 for Melbourne.
