Powerball Swells As 36 Winners Split Div 3

Powerball hopefuls were left empty-handed on Thursday, 12 September 2024, as no sold entry matched all seven numbers plus the Powerball in Draw 1478.

The $12 million prize went unclaimed, causing the jackpot to soar to an impressive $20 million for the next draw.

The winning numbers for the night were [24], [32], [9], [12], [22], [31], [34], with the Powerball [10].

Interestingly, there was also no winner in Division Two, which requires matching all seven numbers without the Powerball. This rare occurrence added to the excitement, as the Division Two prize pool was transferred to Division Three.

While the top prize remained untouched, plenty of players scored smaller wins across the lower divisions, sharing in a total prize pool of $27,472,331.12.
