The big winner of the evening was a lucky punter from New Plymouth who took out first division and won $1 million.

Second division was shared by 17 winners, who each banked $15,502.

The top Powerball prize rolled over, but Powerball division two was won by a lucky player from Wellington who took home $32,225. The other big winner of the evening was a Strike player, who won $800,000 in Strike 4.

Powerball's jackpot will increase to $10 million for Wednesday's draw.
