Lotto’s second mega jackpot is up for grabs this week after a Tasmanian man won $70m

Just two days after a Tasmanian man became a multi-millionaire in Tuesday’s Oz Lotto, $50m is up for grabs in Powerball.

It’s the fourth biggest Powerball prize since February, when a man from Queensland won $60m.

If a ticket holder takes the division one prize on Thursday night, it will take the total winnings to $120m in a single week.

The fortunate Tasmanian man who claimed the entire division one prize earlier this week said he planned to retire immediately, purchase a dream home with his partner and support his family.

“Oh, this is brilliant, absolutely brilliant … I’ve had a (rough) couple of years,” he said.

“I am just getting back on my feet, and I still have a mortgage when everyone else (my age) is about to retire. I have been saying I will have to work until I am 70, but not now.”

Powerball is Australia’s biggest jackpot lottery that has seen 21 people win a total of $524m division one prize pools this year.

Last year, a man from South Australia claimed the game’s biggest ever individual lottery win in Australia taking home a huge $150m.

The luckiest numbers drawn in Powerball are 9, 7, 17, 11, 3, 23 and 2.

The least drawn numbers are 33, 31, 29, 15, 13, 26 and 8.

Entries to Thursday’s draw close at 7.30pm AEST with the draw shortly after.
