Three Lucky Lotto Players Win Lotto First Division

Three Lotto players who bought their tickets in Christchurch, Hamilton and Glen Innes, Auckland, have won Lotto First Division with each winning $333,333 in tonight’s draw, says NZ Lotteries Chief Executive Trevor Hall.

Another player, also from Auckland, has won Strike Four, taking home $117,988.

Lotto Powerball has jackpotted this week, to an estimated $5 million in next week’s draw.

Chandar Kanta Mani from Auckland was another big winner on the night, spinning Lotto’s Winning wheel and taking home $150,000.

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. Mr Hall said winning tickets are identified by the serial number at the bottom right of every Lotto ticket. Players can check their ticket at any lottery outlet.

This week’s Winning Wheel ticket was sold in Pakuranga. The serial number is 191-47790084-20xx.
