Up for grabs on Wednesday night was a huge $25 million Lotto Powerball prize - but it wasn't struck and will roll over to $28m on Saturday.
One lucky player, however, bagged $1 million in Lotto first division.
Wednesday's winning numbers were revealed at about 8:20pm. They were: 1, 5, 16, 23, 24 and 39. The Powerball was 10 and the bonus ball was 38.
If Powerball is struck on Saturday, it will follow the record-breaking Powerball win last year - where a family from the small Waikato town of Pōkeno won $42 million.
Last month, an Auckland man netted $21 million in the first Lotto Powerball win of 2022.
Live Lotto draws aren't taking place while New Zealand is in the red COVID traffic light setting. Instead, Lotto is using computer-generated draws.
