One PowerBall Xtra ticket, one instant millionaire

Tuesday’s PowerBall Xtra draw delivered a genuine winning moment, with one player matching five numbers plus the PowerBall to scoop the top prize in that division.

The main PowerBall jackpot rolled over again, but PowerBall Xtra players had a very different night.

The winning numbers drawn on Tuesday, 1 September were 04, 18, 31, 34 and 40, with a PowerBall number of 10.

One PowerBall Xtra ticket matched all five numbers plus the PowerBall, taking the top prize in that division.

A single winner, a serious payout

The sole PowerBall Xtra Division 1 winner, matching five numbers plus the PowerBall, takes home a prize worth well over R2 million…

R2 288 709.10 to be exact.

It’s the kind of win that can genuinely change a life overnight, and it comes after a run of rollovers in that division.

Beyond the top prize, plenty of other PowerBall Xtra players still cashed in.

Nineteen players matched four numbers plus the PowerBall, while another 136 matched four numbers alone. Further down the divisions, thousands more players picked up smaller prizes.

What this means going forward

With Division 1 won, the PowerBall Xtra rollover resets completely heading into Friday’s draw.

Total sales for Tuesday’s draw came to just over R8.1 million, giving a sense of just how many players were in the running.

The regular PowerBall jackpot, however, still hasn’t been claimed and rolls over again into Friday’s draw.

It’s always a little thrilling when a rollover finally breaks, even when it’s not the headline jackpot. Somewhere out there, one PowerBall Xtra player’s life just changed completely.
