No Powerball winner sees next week’s pot increased to $30 million

Nobody won last night’s $20 million Powerball lotto, which means $30 million is up for grabs next week.

Four people walked away with $116,534 each, splitting the division two prize of $466,139, however, there was no winning ticket for the division one jackpot.

Another 46 people walked away with their share of $576,541, pocketing $12,533 each in the division three prize.

A spokesperson from The Lott confirmed that there was no winning ticket, meaning next week’s Thursday Powerball prize will total $30 million.

The winning numbers in last night’s game were 3, 14, 34, 31, 27, 5, 7 and the powerball number was 1.

Just two weeks ago, a woman from Ballina in NSW pocketed the entire $100 million Powerball win in the Thursday night draw on October 15.

The NSW woman was the only winner the jackpot draw, which, according to lottery officials, made her the equal-biggest lottery winner in Australian history.

“What the f---. I’m still in shock. No, this can’t be happening,” she screamed when told the news, according to quotes released by The Lott.

“No, c’mon. This is bullshit. Bloody hell. Is this my cousin pranking me? My cousin is pranking me.

“I can’t believe this. Oh my God. I am sitting here with my entire family. I love that I’m around them right now sharing this moment with them.”

The Ballina woman said all her family members bought a ticket in Thursday's draw and she only bought her entry not long before the draw closed due to “a bit of FOMO”.

“We recently had a death in the family, and I think it’s a sign from them; they’re so looking after me,” the woman said.

“We’ve had signs all day from them; things moving, cans moving, bags waving in the wind.”

The woman said the win would pay off the mortgage and help “lots of family members”, not just herself.

Another $60 million is up for grabs on Tuesday night in Tuesday’s Oz Lotto draw.
