It will be a Mother's Day to remember for one lucky player from Auckland taking home $12.3 million with Powerball First Division in last night's live Lotto draw. 

The winning ticket was sold at Hylite Dairy in Auckland and is made up of $12 million from Powerball First Division and $333,333 from Lotto First Division.

Saturday night's winner is the tenth Powerball winner already this year and comes just three weeks after a MyLotto player from Auckland won $14.25 million with Powerball First Division. The winner won big while playing her own lucky numbers – a combination of family birthdays, milestones and special events.

Two other Lotto players from Auckland and Wellington will also be celebrating after each winning $333,333 with Lotto First Division last night. The winning Lotto tickets were sold on MyLotto.  

Strike Four was also won last night by two players from Auckland and Christchurch, who each took home $100,000. The winning Strike tickets were sold at Hornby Mall Lotto in Christchurch and on MyLotto to a player from Auckland.

Meanwhile, in Lotto NZ's popular Mother's Day Triple Dip promotion, 105 extra prizes were up for grabs including 5x Mercedes-Benz A-Class cars and 100x prizes of $5,000 cash.
