The Lotto Powerball will continue to grow after no one struck the $43 million jackpot in tonight's draw.

Tonight's winning numbers are 16, 10, 25, 32, 29, 34  bonus ball 40, Powerball 4.

One lucky punter won Lotto First Division, taking home a cool $1 million.

Powerball will now roll over to a must win $50 million for the next draw.

The largest ever Powerball prize of $44.1 million was won by a young couple from the Hibiscus Coast in November 2016, with more recent high jackpots being shared by multiple winners.
