Three fortunate Lotto players from Auckland and Palmerston North each won $333,333 with First Division.

The winning tickets were sold at Clendon Postshop Lotto, Roscommon Superette in Auckland, and Awapuni Four Square in Palmerston North.

In addition, two Strike players from Palmerston North and Balclutha each won $150,000 with Strike Four, with the winning tickets sold at New World Broadway in Palmerston North and Balclutha Bookshop in Balclutha.

The Powerball jackpot was not struck on Saturday evening, and it has now rolled over to $12 million for the next draw on Wednesday night. Meanwhile, Lotto is conducting a special draw on Saturday to help people and communities impacted by Cyclone Gabrielle. 

Lotto will double its usual community contribution, with 50 cents from every dollar spent on Lotto, Powerball, or Strike supporting those affected. Lotto encourages players who want to buy a ticket to get in early and remind them to play responsibly.
