A Hasting Lotto player will be enjoying a boost to their bank account after winning $500,000 with Lotto First Division in last night's live Lotto draw.
They share the First Division win with a player from Northland. The winning tickets were both sold on MyLotto.
The Hastings-based player has not yet claimed their prize.
Powerball was not struck and has rolled over to Saturday night, where the jackpot will be $14 million.
A ticket sold at Greenmeadows New World in Napier was one of 11 winning tickets nationwide for Lotto's Second Division draw, each netting $20,779.
