Winning Form Continues For All Blacks And Lotto

Winning Form Continues For All Blacks And Lotto

As the nation’s attention focuses on the All Blacks tonight, a lucky Lotto player from Levin won’t believe their eyes when they check their tickets and find they’ve won $1 million from tonight’s draw, says NZ Lotteries’ Chief Executive, Todd McLeay.

“Winners up and down the country have had their lives changed by Lotto First Division over the past few weeks, and it’s good to see the trend is continuing – let’s hope the All Blacks maintain their winning form too,” says Mr McLeay.

The winning Lotto ticket was sold at Levin Mall Lotto in Levin.

Strike Four was not struck tonight and will jackpot to $200,000 for next week’s draw.

Another jackpot for Powerball tonight means that the First Division prize has grown to a massive $6 million for next week’s draw.

Tonight’s other big winner was a family syndicate from Wellington and the Wairarapa. Nominated spinner, Niels Way from Wellington, spun up a massive $500,000 prize on Lotto’s Winning Wheel.

Tonight’s Winning Wheel ticket was bought at Golden Nugget Lotto Shop in Naenae, Lower Hutt, and the serial number is 783-16897280-20XX.

“Anyone who bought their ticket from any of the above winning stores should write their name on the back of the ticket and check it immediately at any NZ Lotteries outlet."

All Lotto players are automatically in the draw to win the opportunity to spin Lotto’s Winning Wheel, regardless of the type of ticket they buy. Players can check their ticket at any lottery outlet.
