Lotto: Powerball jackpots to $100 million after no ticketholders claim division one prize on Thursday night

Powerball’s division one prize has soared to a mind boggling amount after no ticketholders were able to lay claim to the top prize in Thursday’s draw.

Next week’s draw will give players the chance to win a share in $100 million for the first time since November 2024.

But not all ticketholders walked away empty handed. Six players — including two West Aussies — struck it lucky with division two hauls worth more than $121,970 each.

The winning numbers for draw #1516 were 1, 30, 12, 34, 24, 9 and 6. The powerball was 10.

Lotterywest CEO Colin Smith said WA Lotto history could be made if a single ticketholder takes out the division one prize next Thursday.

“WA’s biggest Lotto win to date is an $80 million Powerball prize, which was won by a group of 55 ladies from a gym in Perth’s northern suburbs in December 2021,” he said.

“When jackpots reach these heights, it’s a great opportunity for players to get a syndicate together with family, friends or workmates, to share the cost of a ticket and hopefully the joy of a win.”

Tickets for Powerball’s $100 million jackpot are available in-store, online or via the Lotterywest App until 6pm on Thursday.
