A Tauranga Lotto player and two Rotorua Lotto players will be delighted to learn they have each won $16,948 with Lotto Second Division in Saturday night’s live Lotto draw. 

The winning tickets were sold at My Lotto and Lucky Lotto Shop in Rotorua.

Powerball and Strike have both rolled over on Saturday night, meaning there is a combined prize pool of $22 million up for grabs on Wednesday.

Powerball was not struck on Saturday and has rolled over to Wednesday night, where the jackpot will be $20 million.

Lotto First Division will be $1 million and Strike Four also rolled over on Saturday night and will be $1 million on Wednesday, meaning it will be a Must Be Won draw. In a Strike Must Be Won draw, if no single ticket wins First Division, the prize pool is added to the next highest division with a winner. 

24 Lotto players win Second Division

As well as the three Tauranga and Rotorua players, another 21 lucky Lotto players will be over the moon after each winning $16,948 with Lotto Second Division in Saturday night’s live Lotto draw. 

Three lucky players also won Powerball Second Division, taking their total winnings to $26,522.

The winning Powerball Second Division tickets were sold at New World Broadway in Palmerston North, Balclutha Bookshop in Balclutha, and on MyLotto to a player from Auckland. The winning Second Division tickets were sold at the following stores:

Anyone who bought their ticket from any of the above stores should check their ticket as soon as possible in-store, on MyLotto, or through the MyLotto App.
