Australian Powerball Jackpot Largest Ever

June 5th, 2008 · No Comments

The Australian Powerball jackpot once more went unclaimed - as sadly no-one was able to match those winning numbers.

On the positive side though, this now means there is an enormous jackpot of $50 Million this Thursday - which is the largest ever jackpot for an Australian lottery.

So will we see the richest ever Australian lottery winner?

The highly popular Australian Powerball game was made to pay out very big prizes - and very big jackpot winners. The largest ever lottery wins have been more than $30 million only four times. And that’s since the game launched back in 1996, making this weeks draw a very special event for all Australians.

Who were the big winners?

Three of those jumbo jackpots were won from the Powerball game, with one each from Western Australia, Victoria and New South Wales. Oz Lotto provided the fourth biggest win.

Oz Lotto has also provided the biggest ever Australian lottery prize so far. And it happened just a few weeks ago. An amazing 1st division prize of $47 Million was claimed on 29 April 2008. It was shared by just two winning tickets, both bought in Sydney’s western suburbs. One was a young man who claimed $24 Million, the other a syndicate of laboratory workers - who after sharing out their win still got $1.5 Million each in their pockets.

If you want to play the big Powerball draw in a syndicate to get a much better chance of winning, you can join the Australian Syndicate online now.
