Queensland residents have been reminded to check their Powerball ticket after one person claimed the $100 million prize all to themselves.
The hunt is on for the mysterious and very lucky winner from one state who will be taking home the $100 million Powerball jackpot, with lotto officials revealing the region where the ticket was bought.
"Because it's such a big prize, there is a process to follow to allow time for the winner to come forward in private," Mr Hart said.Those who live in the area or maybe even were on holidays in the area and had purchased a ticket are urged to check it immediately.They will need to wait at least two weeks before the winnings go into their bank account, to ensure people don't"rush their decisions" on how they'll spend the cash.
In May, a middle-aged man from Adelaide won the $150 million Powerball jackpot, the largest ever lotto win in Australia.
