The Powerball jackpot has rocketed to $50m with no winning entry for the first division winning entry for Thursday night’s $30m draw.
The winning numbers were 21, 35, 26, 23, 15, 10, 7 and the Powerball number was 18.
However, four lucky Aussies managed to score big after splitting the division two prize of $483,505.80, with each of the foursome now $120,876.45 richer.
With no winner for draw number 1515 on Thursday, the Powerball jackpot the prize will now soar to a staggering $50m for the June 5 draw.
This comes just days after the Oz Lotto’s $50m prize also failed to go off. Next Tuesday’s prise has soared to $70m.
That means two whopping jackpots – totalling $120m – will be up for grabs next week.
Previously, an Aussie man bagged the $30m Powerball jackpot on 9 May as the sole division one winner.
The NSW man from Cessnock, was ecstatic at the news of his win, and said “there would no more worrying about bills now”.
“For a start, I’ll look at buying a new house and looking after the family. Then, I’ll take it from there,” he said.
“I’m going to ring my kids right now and tell them the news!”
