Perth Man Wins Second Division One Lotto Prize in $1.8 Million Superdraw

The payout will let him retire sooner after he previously took a $3 million share in a 2015 syndicate win.

Overview

  • The man in his 60s held a winning Saturday Lotto Superdraw ticket for draw 4687 and will receive $1.8 million after buying the ticket at Palmyra Supa News.
  • He previously shared a $30 million OZ Lotto syndicate jackpot in 2015, which gave him about $3 million and informed his modest spending and saving since then.
  • He discovered the new win by checking numbers on the Lotterywest website, then collected a presentation cheque and was the first of three WA winners to come forward.
  • The Superdraw produced 11 Division One winning entries nationally, with four in New South Wales, three in Western Australia, two in Victoria and one each in Queensland and South Australia.
  • Commentary noted the extreme rarity of winning Division One twice with published odds varying widely and Lotterywest reiterated that retailer or player syndicates are a common, cost-sharing way to play while offering gambling‑help resources.
