A Lotto player from Auckland has won $15.25 million in Saturday's draw, the NZ Herald reports.
The prize combines the $15m Powerball First Division jackpot with a $250,000 share of Lotto First Division. The winning ticket was bought online through MyLotto.
Three other players each won $250,000 in Lotto First Division: two bought their tickets on MyLotto in Auckland and on the Kāpiti Coast, and the third at a shop in Stratford. A Strike Four ticket bought in Wellington won $200,000, and twelve players shared Second Division prizes of about $23,400 each, one of whom also won Powerball Second Division.
Lotto urged anyone who bought a ticket at one of the listed winning stores to check it. The organiser puts the odds of winning Powerball First Division at about one in 38 million.
