Wednesday’s $12 million jackpot went unstruck, but one lucky player picked up $1 million in the First Division draw.
Strike Four also went unstruck midweek.
Lotto’s First Division Powerball jackpot has been struck twice so far this year.
One MyLotto player from the Manawatū-Whanganui region won $10.2m on Wednesday, January 14.
One week later, on January 21, a MyLotto player from Otago won $5.3m.
What to do if you win
Ticket holders can see immediately if they have won if they purchased a ticket through MyLotto. Prizes of $1000 or less are automatically credited to the account.
For prizes exceeding $1000, winners must complete an online prize claim form.
Winners with physical tickets must still visit a Lotto retailer to claim their prize.
For the Powerball jackpot to be claimed, a ticket holder must get all six Lotto numbers correct as well as the added Powerball number.
