A Powerball ticket sold in Oregon has shattered records by claiming the staggering jackpot of  $1.3 billion – marking it as the fourth-largest jackpot EVER!

A Powerball ticketholder from Oregon clinched the $1.3 billion prize by matching all six numbers announced early on Sunday morning. Here are the winning numbers were 22, 27, 44, 52, 69 and 9.

The lottery ticket was bought at a Plaid Pantry convenience store in the northeast area of the city.

“The Oregon Lottery has never experienced a jackpot win of this magnitude before”- Oregon Lottery director, Mike Wells said. People in Oregon are also eagerly celebrating the newest member of the Powerball millionaire club.

The Fortune of $1.3 Billion: What Could the Powerball Winner Buy?

They could splurge on a fleet of Gulfstream G550 private jets, each costing around $48 million, or assemble a collection of luxurious Northrop and Johnson yachts, priced at approximately $135 million each.

Moreover, if they’re feeling adventurous, they could even acquire a struggling Premier League football team like Southampton FC, purchased for $126 million in 2022. With $1.3 billion in the bank, the sky’s the limit for the newest member of the billionaire club.

The UK winners of a £61m EuroMillions jackpot have been revealed as Richard and Debbie Nuttall – who at first thought they had only won £2.60.

In an extraordinary turn of events, Richard and Debbie Nuttall, from the UK, emerged as the lucky winners of a staggering £61 million EuroMillions jackpot. The couple’s initially thought they had won a lower prize tier but then they realised the magnitude of their amazing life-changing win.

Richard Nuttall, speaking to the media at Mitton Hall Hotel in Clitheroe, Lancashire, expressed their astonishment, saying, “We are dazed, it’s surreal, it’s a huge amount of money. You dream of winning the lottery, but you never think it’s going to be you, but it is.”

While on holiday in Fuerteventura, Richard was casually checking his emails when he stumbled upon a message from the lottery. Initially, it appeared that he had won a mere £2.60.

When the couple realized they had won the jackpot, what was their initial reaction?

Unbeknownst to them, the Nuttalls were about to experience a life-altering moment when they discovered the true extent of their jackpot win. With newfound financial freedom, they can now actively pursue their dreams and aspirations.

Both Richard and Debbie have decided to leave their jobs behind. Debbie has already handed in her notice, while Richard, a self-employed accountant, plans to retire at the end of the tax year in March. This newfound financial security will allow them to enjoy life at a more relaxed pace.

Richard expressed, “We have worked hard all our lives, and we are now very much looking forward to taking life a bit easier. But not just that, this win will also change the lives of those closest to us, and hopefully the next generation after that too.”

What does a “Must be Won” Jackpot actually mean? Here is why you should be excited…

1. Wondering what “Must Be Won: draw means?

A ‘must-be-won’ draw occurs when no one has matched all the lucky numbers to win the UK Lotto jackpot in the last five draws. And then, the next draw will be a ‘must-be-won’ event.

During this event, if no one matched all 6 main numbers. The £12.7 MILLION Jackpot will be shared among lower-tier prizes, leading to substantially larger rewards and greater chances of winning for everyone.

2. If no one Matches 6 this time, how is the Jackpot paid out?

Winners who match two numbers not only receive a FREE ticket but also win £5.00. Moreover, for the Match 3 prize tier, it varies, but it offers a substantial increase compared to the standard draw prize of £30.

-For example: In the most recent ‘Must Be Won’ draw on September 2, 2023, a generous £110 prize was awarded.

The Match 5 prize can see a massive increase. While the standard draw pays out £1,750, the ‘Must Be Won’ rolldown draw has the potential to deliver well over £10,000. The prize money will significantly multiply depending on the number of match 5 winning tickets.

In a nutshell, this Wednesday’s “Must Be Won” Jackpot draw is not to be missed!

We are the premier Global Lottery Messenger service that physically purchases your tickets for all the major National Games. Such as the immense US PowerBall and US MegaMillions games, where you have the potential to win Jackpots exceeding a remarkable $1 BILLION.

The Powerball jackpot reached an estimated $1 billion as no winning ticket was sold in the recent drawing. The draw is the third largest in US history.

The Powerball jackpot has once again reached a staggering estimated amount of $1 billion, following the absence of a winning ticket in the latest drawing. This draw stands as the third largest jackpot in the history of the United States.

The next draw on Wednesday 19th July will hold its position as the nation’s third highest jackpot until won. The winner will defy the odds of one in 292.2 million.

Winners have the choice of receiving the $1 billion prize in yearly instalments or a one-time lump sum of $516.8 million before taxes. The largest Powerball jackpot to date was a massive $2.04 billion in November 2022.

In the latest drawing, three individuals won $2 million each by matching all five numbers plus the Power Play. The winning tickets were sold in Arkansas, Georgia, and Texas. Additionally, five individuals won $1 million each by matching all five numbers. The winning tickets were sold in Connecticut, Florida, Kentucky, New York, and Pennsylvania.

The most recent Powerball jackpot winner secured a top prize of nearly $253 million on April 19. Since then, there have been 38 consecutive drawings without a grand prize winner.

45 states across the US are involved in the Powerball, including Washington, D.C., Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The escalating jackpot has led to an increase in lottery participants. For example, according to store clerks, who have observed more frequent visits from eager players.

A couple from New South Wales, Australia, were very emotional after finding out they had won $20 Million Oz Lotto jackpot on Tuesday 2nd August 2022.

“I don’t even know what to do with myself. Retirement is beckoning.”

Reliving the moment they found out about the win, the husband said: “I dropped into the store this morning to check my ticket and the team member gave me a shocked look.

“He said, ‘you might need to sit down, mate’.

He said he couldn’t wait to share it with my family. Overall, their aim is to set everyone up and make sure they don’t have to worry about a thing.

Jeanine Chatfield, the owner of the First Inland City Newsagency, offered her congratulations to the winners and said it was a great moment for the local store.

“I’m pretty sure everyone in town will be talking about it today. It will cause big excitement in the community,” she said.

“It’s pretty cool. We’ve very excited and very happy.”

She continued be saying, “We’ve had a bit of a winning year. We’ve already sold two first prize-winning tickets in Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot, and now this!

The winners of the record breaking £184 million EuroMillions jackpot have been named. The winners from Gloucester UK , named as Joe and Jess Thwaite, scooped the huge jackpot on 10th May 2022.

Joe Thwaite, 49, and Jess Thwaite, 44, bagged the huge EuroMillions jackpot of £184 million. The couple were given their oversized cheque during a media event in Cheltenham on 19th May. They said their luck was ‘pretty terrible’ before this big win.

The husband and wife duo matched all five numbers, 3, 25, 27, 28 and 29, plus Lucky Stars 4 and 9, in a historic draw. They contacted the National Lottery immediately after the draw. After getting their claim validated, they waiting a few days before deciding to release their names to the public. It was a decision taken with consideration of their family and friends.

The winning ticket was a Lucky Dip that was purchased on the day of the draw by Joe. His wife did not believe him when he told her they won. They had to check the numbers many before truly believing they’d actually won. Before the win, Jess ran and worked in a salon, while Joe worked as a communication sales engineer. The couple continued to live their lives as normal while they waited for the win to be confirmed.

They told their family members as soon as the win was confirmed and received very mixed reactions. Jess’s mother ‘screamed in the car park and burst into tears’. Jess said her mum is a regular lottery follower and knew the jackpot amount, ‘right down to the 10p at the end’.

Looking towards the future

The Thwaites plan to take some time to think about their future. They describe themselves as ‘normal people’ who got very lucky. The couple bought their current house two months ago, which has plenty of room for renovation.

Lots of holidays could coming-up. The Thwaites have two children, and their youngest has always wanted to visit Hawaii.

Joe has made the decision to leave his job. Jess is not sure what her future holds, but feels it will be a ‘full-time job just managing all of this for quite some time’.

Hospital staff lottery syndicate wins more than £100k on EuroMillions. The syndicate of 53 have scooped a golden ticket worth £118,041.10, the ticket matched 5 main numbers and 1 lucky star in the recent draw.

A lucky group of NHS workers are ecstatic after winning more than £100k in the EuroMillions lottery. Each member in the group will now take home just over £2.2k of winnings thanks to the 1 ticket, which was a bit of good fortune itself. Usually, the syndicate only buys tickets for the National lottery draw but because the EuroMillions jackpot was so high recently they decided to have an extra go.

The incredible jackpot on 8th October 2021 was an impressive £174,236,090 and the health workers came up winners by bagging the 2nd prize which was £118,041.10. The syndicate leader and pharmacy technician at Morriston Hospital in Swansea, Kim Owen, said: “We don’t always play EuroMillions but because the jackpot has been so high, we thought it was worth a try as the prizes would be big enough for us to share!

 “I usually buy the tickets as and when but on the day of this draw, I decided I was going to wait and buy all the tickets at once. I felt like doing something a bit different might bring us a bit of luck – and excitingly I was right!

“I checked and double checked the numbers drawn on Friday night straight after the draw and I just couldn’t believe it, i was speechless. I had to ask my husband to triple check the ticket and as soon as I was sure it was true, I tried to call a few people in our group to share the good news. As it was late, no-one picked up, so I put it on the shared WhatsApp group instead.

“People were so excited and there were others, like me, who just couldn’t sleep so my phone was going off with messages throughout the night!” The syndicate is predominantly made up of staff in the pharmacy department at the hospital who are said to get on really well with each other and have given themselves the fitting nickname, “The Pharmily Crew,” according to online source.

After a challenging nearly 2 years working on the frontline especially during the pandemic, the EuroMillions win has helped lift all our syndicate members’ spirits, according to syndicate leader Kim.

EuroMillions: Record £184m/ €220M jackpot won at last in yesterdays draw – by a single French ticket-holder! The winning EuroMillions numbers were 21, 26, 31, 34, 49 and the Lucky Star numbers were 02 and 05.

A record £184m/ €220M EuroMillions jackpot has been won! The amount went unclaimed after Tuesday’s draw – and led to a surge of entries for Friday’s game.  The French winner, who now has exactly 60 days to claim their prize, would be able to count themselves richer than recent single launched singer Adele, who has a net worth of £130m, according to The Sunday Times Rich List. Now, the next jackpot up for grabs on Tuesday sits at an estimated £14m – it’s all still to play for!!

So far this year there have been 5 UK EuroMillions jackpot winners, including the April anonymous winners of £122m and £111m in June. The biggest recent UK winners to go public were Frances & Patrick Connolly from Northern Ireland, who won an incredible £115m prize in 2019. That year a UK ticket holder also bagged themselves a £170m jackpot but in this case decided to remain anonymous.

Where the ticket was bought or whether the winner is an individual or a syndicate will not be revealed unless the ticket-holder decides to go public with their information. Camelot official Andy Carter, senior winners’ adviser at The National Lottery, said before the draw: “It’s all to play for on Friday night as the whopping EuroMillions jackpot of an estimated £184M / €220M remains up for grabs.

“EuroMillions has now hit its cap, which means any money that would have gone into the jackpot will now boost prizes in the next winning prize tier.

“If one UK winner banks the lot, they would instantly become the UK’s biggest ever National Lottery winner. Players were encouraged to get their tickets early to be in with a chance of winning this extraordinary prize.”

After 40 tense drawings without a big PowerBall jackpot winner, a single ticket which was sold in California matched ALL 6 numbers and was the lucky winner of an incredible almost $700m jackpot, officials said.

The winning numbers which were drawn last Monday night were 12, 22, 54, 66 and 69. The Powerball was 15. The $699.8m was the 7th largest in US lottery history to be won. No one had won the game’s grand prize since the 5th  June. According to the California Lottery, the winning ticket was sold at a store in Morro Bay, which is along the central coast. The lucky winner will be able to choose between the annual option paid over 29 years or the ultimate cash option of $496m. Both prize options will be subject to taxes.

Lottery officials will not know the identity of the jackpot holder of the winning amount until a claim form is filed, the California Lottery said,.

There were also 5 $1m tickets sold; 2 in Massachusetts and 1 each in Virginia, Florida and Arizona.

The 41st drawing set a record, topping the previous mark of 36 drawings that ended in January 2021. The longer the game goes without a grand prize winner, the larger the payout grows and grows.

The jackpot dry spell was by design, as the game’s long odds of an impressive 292.2m to 1 are intended to generate massive prizes that draw more players for the ultimate jackpot.

Lottery officials have noted that despite the long wait for a winning jackpot ticket, plenty of people have won smaller prizes, including 2.8M players in Saturday’s drawing alone. Those winnings ranged from $1m to $4m.

Powerball is played in 45 states plus Washington DC, the US Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico.
