The winner of Saturday night’s Lotto Powerball jackpot has yet to come forward and claim their $44 million prize.

A single Auckland ticket won the mammoth total on Saturday night, equalling the biggest single-winner in Lotto history in New Zealand.

Their total prize for the ticket bought on MyLotto was $44,066,667, and it included a one-fifteenth share of the Division One prize.

At 3pm on Sunday, a Lotto NZ spokesperson confirmed the winner had not yet claimed their prize.

“Hopefully in the next couple of days we will have more information,” they said.

Saturday night’s winning numbers were 24, 17, 25, 30, 6 and 3. The bonus ball was 36, and the Powerball was 1.

Two people share Strike Four’s $500,000 prize, each collecting $250,000.

Those tickets were bought on MyLotto by players from Christchurch and Auckland.

Waikato Lotto players also struck it lucky in Wednesday night’s draw.

A player who bought their ticket at Pauanui Supervalue and another from Hamilton who bought their ticket online via MyLotto were among 17 Lotto second division winners, each winning $26,424.

And two Waikato Lotto players were each more than $25,000 better off after last weekend’s draw.

Eighteen players won Lotto second division, each taking home $25,722. Three players also won second division Powerball, taking their winnings to $36,836.

The Waikato winners bought their tickets at Davies Corner Foodmarket and online via MyLotto.
