$8.25 million Powerball prize won by Otago player

The successful ticket was bought on MyLotto to a participant from Central Otago.

The prize is made up of $8 million from Powerball First Division and $250,000 from Lotto First Division.

Tonight’s winner is the eighteenth Powerball multi-millionaire of 2023, and the win comes simply weeks after an $8.3 million Powerball prize was gained by a pair in Whakatāne. 

Three different Lotto gamers may even be celebrating after every successful $250,000 with Lotto First Division in tonight’s draw. The successful tickets have been bought at Woolworths Newtown in Wellington, and on MyLotto to gamers from Napier and Carterton.

In the meantime, one fortunate Strike participant may even be celebrating after successful $300,000 with Strike 4. The successful Strike ticket was bought at Victory On The Spot in Nelson.
