  • 02/09/2018

Father's Day just got half-a-million times better for two lucky families.

Saturday night's first division prize of $1 million was split between two players, each taking home $500,000.

One winning ticket was sold in Taupo, the other in Bluff.

Powerball was missed though, and will jackpot to $5 million on Wednesday. Strike too went begging, and rises to $500,000.

Ten new Ford cars were given away in the special draw, which went to players in Auckland, Levin, Palmerston North, Timaru, Napier, Kaitaia and Waihi Beach.

The winning numbers were 1, 8, 18, 21, 34 and 36. Powerball was 10, the Bonus ball 15. Strike was 34, 18, 36 and 21.
