One very lucky Lotto player is $9 million richer.
The winning ticket for the mouth-watering Lotto Powerball and Division 1 prize was purchased at Four Square Matangi, Hamilton.
This is the seventh time Powerball has been struck this year - winners have included a lucky New Plymouth mum who won $5.3 million from a ticket slipped into her Mother's Day card earlier this month.
The winning numbers were: 12, 15, 19, 28, 39, 40.The Bonus Ball was 17, and Powerball was 4.
The Strike Four numbers came in this order: 12, 19, 39 then 28.
The other big winners were in Strike Four.
Two tickets with the first four numbers drawn in the correct order each won $100,000.
Those tickets were bought at New World Whitby in Porirua and Copper Kettle in Masterton.
