Powerball’s $110 million jackpot has been drawn and the winning numbers have been revealed.
The winning numbers tonight were 6, 13, 1, 11, 23, 27, 16. The Powerball was 11.
Early indications show there are three winning tickets — meaning the lucky ticket-holders get $36.6 million each.
The massive jackpot had Australians clamouring to get their hands on an entry ticket, with long queues being reported at newsagents and other lottery outlets.
“When Powerball hits high jackpots like this it’s not only regular players who are keen to grab an entry,” The Lott’s Matt Hart said.
He told news.com.au the number of players surged last week when the jackpot ballooned to $80 million.
“Last week, the peak of sales on the day of the draw was at 6.44pm when more than 4700 entries were sold in 60 seconds,” Mr Hart said.
“That was about 45 minutes before the draw closed, so a lot of people were leaving it to the last minute.”
A third of all Australians are expected to get their hands on tickets as The Lott reveals the hot spots across the country where punters have been most successful in the last year.
In the 12 months ending June 30, 2019, there were 429 division one winning entries held by lottery players that delivered more than $1.16 billion in division one prize money.
Victoria had the most division one winners, with 139 winning entries across all lottery games delivering a total of more than $339.3 million.
But NSW and the ACT won the most prize money, with a cool $388.8 million filling the pockets of its residents.
The Lottery hot spots data also shows the suburbs in each state and territory that are home to the outlets that have sold the most division one winning entries:
• In Queensland, the postcodes of 4500 for Warner and Bray Park and 4680 for Gladstone and Gladstone West have each sold three division one winning entries totalling $4,739,223.39 and $1,573,231.05 respectively.
• In New South Wales and the ACT, the postcodes of 2680 for Griffith and 2147 for Seven Hills and Lalor Park have each sold three division one winning entries totalling $4,430,956.18 and $2,444,985.88 respectively.
• In Victoria, the postcodes of 3021 for St Albans and 3030 for Werribee and Point Cook have both sold four division one wins totalling $29,918,597.90 and $6,741,118.72 respectively.

• In Western Australia, the postcode of 6164 for Success has sold four division one wins totalling $2,191,741.04.
“While lottery wins can land anywhere, we do see clusters of wins emerge from time to time,” Mr Hart said.
“It will be interesting to see if any of these lottery hot spots maintain their reputations and deliver for one of their residents on Thursday night.
“Research with players shows there’s mixed feelings about lottery hot spots.
“Some people will hunt down outlets and areas that have a track record of recent division one wins, while others will avoid these in the belief that lightning won’t strike twice.”
