Victorian Dad Claims Entire $50 Million Powerball Jackpot as Perth Retiree Wins $1 Million

Officials verified the sole winner following contact hurdles with outdated details.

Overview

  • A Wyndham Vale man held the only Division One entry in Powerball draw 1556, taking the full $50 million prize.
  • He missed initial contact because his account listed an old phone number and he deleted the first email before checking the app during the AFL game with his son.
  • The winning ticket cost $6.30 for a four‑game entry using random numbers with Powerball 14, and the winning numbers were 5, 6, 18, 9, 14, 4 and 13 plus Powerball 14.
  • The Lott reported 1,329,898 prizes across divisions two to nine totaling about $32 million, including three Division Two wins of roughly $295,715 each.
  • Separately, a Wilson, Perth man in his 70s won $1 million in the Millionaire Medley from a $4.70 Slikpik and said he will fix his roof and give to charity as Lotterywest underscored its community grants.
