Someone in Western Australia is counting their 40 million lucky stars tonight after taking out the entire Powerball jackpot.
The win, worth $40 million, is WA’s 19th Division One win across all Lotto games so far this year.
“We’re absolutely delighted to have yet another Western Australian winning ticket and our first Division One Powerball win for the year,” Lotterywest CEO Ralph Addis said.
“To average around two Division One wins per week this year is a great result for our State and players.
“This Powerball jackpot run alone has seen more than $6.4 million raised for the Western Australian community through the Lotterywest grants program.
“When WA players win, the entire WA community benefits.”
Tonight’s winning numbers were 18, 14, 13, 16, 21, 19, 29 and the Powerball was 18.
