The Lott’s division one winning tally across all Australian lottery games has now reached 263 so far this calendar year.
Tickets can be purchased at any licensed lottery outlet, online from or via the Lott mobile app. Powerball draw 1218 closes at 7:30pm AEST on Thursday 19 September 2019. Regardless of which entry you opt for, Ms Spencer said it was important to have that entry in your hands before the draw’s close tomorrow night if you want the chance to win the $150 million Powerball prize. “Another entry people may not be aware of is the Pick entry, which guarantees you either one or two of the winning numbers.” There’s even a PowerHit System entry that not only allows you to pick more numbers from the main barrel, but also guarantees the Powerball number. For example, a System 10 entry gives you every seven-number combination of those ten numbers. “A System entry allows you to pick more numbers from the main barrel of 1 to 35. Some of these are larger entry types that are ideal for syndicates of family members, friends and workmates,” she said. “Many players might not realise there are other special entry types that could increase their chances of winning, including System and Pick entries. His PowerHit entry scored him not only a division one prize of $36.60 million but 19 division two prizes as well, boosting his total prize was over $37.60 million.” “This is exactly what happened to one happy winner in July when Powerball reached $110 million. “This means if you do score the division one prize, you will also snag division two a massive 19 times which would bolster your prize dramatically. “While the PowerHit entry may only look like one line on your ticket, players should remember that this type of entry is actually twenty games which consist of the same seven numbers but each game has a different Powerball number from one to 20. A quarter of Powerball division one winners this year held PowerHit entries. “The PowerHit entry also has good form for creating multi-millionaires. If just one of these players had purchased a PowerHit entry, they would be multi-millionaires. These players had all the winning numbers, but not the Powerball number. “During the past eight weeks, we’ve had 46 division two winners. Remember, you do need the Powerball number to win division one,” Ms Spencer said. “PowerHit is a special type of entry unique to Powerball that guarantees the all-important Powerball number. It goes to show that you don’t need a big entry, you just need an entry for the chance to win.” “Time and time again we’ve seen fairly modest-sized Powerball entries take home the division one prize.
“Interestingly, more than a third of this year’s division one winning entries have been 25-game entries. The smallest entry you can get in Powerball is a 4-game entry,” she explained. “Each standard game, represented by a row of numbers on your ticket, gives you a chance to win. Ms Spencer said the more games on your ticket, the more chances you had of winning. Of these, we’ve had an even split between QuickPick and marked entries,” she said. “So far this year, we’ve seen eight division one winners across the nation pocket more than $316 million. Ms Spencer said your chances of winning a Powerball division one prize were statistically the same regardless of whether you marked your entry or the lottery terminal randomly selected numbers for you – provided it was the same sized entry. The Sydney woman who currently holds the record for being Australia’s biggest individual lottery winner, after scoring $107 million in January, won division one with this exact entry type.” “For example, the chances of winning Powerball with a common 12-game entry is about 1-in-11 million. “The chances of winning division one in Powerball with a single-game entry are about 1-in-134 million, but it’s important to note, players hold more than one game on their ticket and this increases their chances of winning,” she said. “Different entry types offer different chances of winning and have had varying track records of making overnight multi-millionaires,” she said. While every entry offers the chance to take home the coveted division one prize, the Lott spokesperson Bronnie Spencer said some players might not realise there are different types of Powerball entries.
Up to half of all Australian adults are expected to have an entry in tomorrow’s $150 million Powerball draw – the biggest prize ever offered by an Australian lottery game. As Aussies dream about how the rest of their life might look with a $150 million Powerball payday, their attention is turning to what entry types might help them score tomorrow’s record-breaking jackpot.
