New Zealand lotteries: review 2020.03.02-08

Hello everyone!
We hope you had a fantastic week. As for every week, we have some great news! Some nice stuff was happening in the lotteries across New Zealand last week (2 March-8 March). And we are excited to share these things with you.

Traditionally, one of the most popular lotteries in New Zealand is divided into three parts: Lotto, Strike! and Powerball. All of them were presented on two draws. As usual, they took part on Wednesday (4 March) and Saturday (7 March).

In total, the prize pool of $16797964 was delivered last week. As a result, 686,112 players won a prize across both draws. There were 1 jackpot winner at the Lotto division (gaining $1,000,000). Meanwhile, both draws of Strike! and Powerball did not have any winners of jackpots this week. But we are happy for the winners of 2nd best prizes across these parts. 2 people landed either $14,616 or $9,802 in Powerball. Strike! had 108 winners who received the prizes between $695 and $774.

Keno is a lottery ongoing on a daily basis with draws taking place 4 times per day (10 AM, 1 PM, 3 PM and 6 PM) - therefore, players are quite proactive due to the frequency and difficulty level - this game is quite straight-forward and somehow similar to the popular game of bingo. Summing up all 28 sessions which took part during the last week, the multiplier of each draw was fluctuating from 1.5 to 5.

During the daily games of Bullseye lottery last week, the lucky numbers for the week of 2 March to 8 March: 187,690, 441,332, 903,781, 629,261, 644,028, 566,926, 851,570.

Overall, the average result of this lucky number giving the jackpot last week was 603,513. There were no winners of the jackpot last week. But in the Division 2 (also known as the second best option to win), there were 2 people who brought home the prize of $10,000 each. For the Division 3, there were 16 winners who got prizes from $240 to $1347.

Even though the market of popular lotteries in New Zealand is not really large, the format of most of them allow players to gamble and play without any additional struggle or inconvenience to their usual routines. This happens since most lotteries are ongoing every day. Also, since they do offer the methods of gambling containing little or no risk at all, the participation in these draws is quite easy and pleasant to do.

Best wishes to all winners and participants from us once again. Looking forward to delivering some scores and fun facts to you next time!
