40 Victorians Split $10M Powerball Jackpot

The Lott

A group of 40 Victorians have had a winning finish to the first week of January, sharing a $10 million prize in last night's Powerball draw.

The winning crew held one of the two division one winning entries in Powerball draw 1547 on Thursday 8 January 2026. The other division one winning entry was held by a Western Australian.

In addition to the $10 million division one prize, the Victorian syndicate, called 100 PowerHits, also scored division two 19 times, division eight 14 times and division nine 29 times, bolstering the group's total haul to $10,220,866.

Each member of the Victorian syndicate took home a prize worth $255,521.65.

Members of the winning group are unknown to each other having purchased their syndicate share at 25 different Tatts outlets across Melbourne and Victoria.

Some of the syndicate shares were not registered to a player card or online account with The Lott Members Club, which means some winners may be unaware of their good fortune.

The syndicate was established by Vic Market Lotto, 82 Therry Street, Melbourne, with shares sold at:
