Thirty-seven players have won $13,579 each in Saturday night’s Second Division Lotto draw.
The lucky numbers were 11, 35, 3, 20, 19 and 27. The bonus ball was 31 and the Powerball 7.
Three players also won Powerball Second Division, taking their total winnings to $25,678 each.
Two tickets weresold to players from Northland, 11 from Auckland, two from Waikato, three from Hawke’s Bay, five from Bay of Plenty, one from the Central North Island, one from Lower Hutt and three from Wellington.
They also claimed a further $83,000 in a 12-way split of the First Division pool.
The two $15m-winning tickets were sold at SuperValue Plaza in Invercargill and on MyLotto in Wellington.
Saturday night’s draw came after long queues were reported at ticket outlets around the country earlier in the day, given the size of the prize.
