New Zealand lotteries: review 2020.03.16-22

Hello everyone!
Hope you are doing well and feeling good during this uncertain period. Just a reminder - many lotteries can be played without even leaving home nowadays. Therefore, we won’t stop updating and involving you. Let’s check what happened in the lotteries across New Zealand last week (16 March-22 March) - we are sure there were definitely some exciting stuff

Traditionally, one of the most popular lotteries in New Zealand is divided into three parts: Lotto, Strike! and Powerball. All of them were played across two draws which took part on Wednesday (18 March) and Saturday (21 March).

In total, the prize pool of $17,728,880 was delivered last week. 708,096 players won prizes across both draws. There were 2 jackpot winners in the Lotto division (having received $500,000 each). Meanwhile, Strike! had 1 winner of its jackpot worth $1,000,000 on Saturday. Finally, even though no one won the jackpot on Strike! last week, this prize was transferred to the next draw - it is a great chance to try this game out. Congrats to all winners!

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 were live 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 were as follows: 593,810, 601,612, 179,946, 123,895, 325,614, 812,454, 407,120

Overall, the average result of this lucky number giving the jackpot last week was 434,922. There were no winners of the jackpot (the best prize) and for the Division 2 (the 2nd best prize) last week. For the Division 3, there were 13 winners who got prizes from $402 to $1230.

Even though the market of popular lotteries in New Zealand is not quite large, the format of most of them allow players to gamble and play without any extra difficulties or interruption to their daily tasks. As most lotteries are live every day, this can be one of the reasons. Also, since these games can offer the ways of gambling with little or no risk at all, the participation becomes simple and nice.

Congrats to all winners and participants once again. We are excited to see everyone here next time! Take care and have a good week.
