No one has pocketed the elusive $21 million up for grabs in tonight’s Lotto draw, however, four people have split the first division prize of $1m.
Tonight’s numbers were: 9, 3, 22, 37, 2 and 18. The Bonus ball was 23 and the Powerball was 8.
The jackpot for Powerballwas $20m, Lotto first division was $1m and Strike Four was $500,000.
The last person who became a millionaire thanks to Lotto was a player who claimed $17,250,000 after winning First Division and Powerball. They purchased their ticket through the MyLotto app and live in Invercargill.
They became the seventh Powerball multi-millionaire of 2023, and their victory came only a few weeks after a couple from Porirua claimed a $7m Powerball prize.
