The distance between Russia and New Zealand is roughly 10,000 kilometres. So how did one of TheLotter\u2019s veteran players from Russia win a fantastic prize of\u00a0NZ$226,101<\/strong>\u00a0when he played New Zealand Powerball? By playing it globally, of course! A Russian native, V.K. had only been with TheLotter for a month and has already won big after choosing to\u00a0buy lottery tickets online!<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

V.K.\u2019s quick win with\u00a0TheLotter<\/a>\u00a0in June 2013 bears a resemblance to\u00a0TheLotter\u2019s UK\u00a0US$1 million<\/strong>\u00a0US Powerball winner<\/a>\u00a0from April of 2012 who had received the good news about his seven-digit prize just a few weeks after becoming a member! Like TheLotter\u2019s big Powerball winner, V.K. purchased his winning ticket with a subscription entry to automatically play New Zealand Powerball\u2019s thrilling weekly draw and receive every 10th ticket free! By using an eight-number systematic form, V.K. was able to produce all possible entry combinations of his selected numbers and increase the odds of winning a prize! In doing so, V.K. not only matched six regular numbers but also was able to multiply lower secondary prizes to come away with a big Lotto NZ payday! Saturday\u2019s draw produced winning numbers 2, 7, 14, 23, 30, 33 bonus number 5 and Powerball 8.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

V.K.\u2019s decision to opt for an eight number systematic form proved to be an extremely beneficial move. He won the second place prize of NZ$142,857<\/strong>, but with additional lines he was able to win a number of secondary prizes that were multiplied to create an even bigger pay-out! V.K.\u2019s eight-number systematic form awarded him a 5th place prize of NZ$13,169<\/strong> and 6th place prize of NZ$560, each recurred a total of 6 times! In addition, V.K. won a 9th place prize of NZ$58 that was multiplied 15 times over! In total, V.K.\u2019s winning strategy yielded him an additional NZ$83,244<\/strong> in prizes on top of the match 6 win! Talk about beginner\u2019s luck! Luckily for V.K., there are no taxes on New Zealand Powerball prizes, meaning that this huge win will be delivered in full directly to his bank account.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

You Won’t Regret Taking a Chance on New Zealand Powerball<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Introduced to Kiwi lottery fans in 2001, New Zealand Powerball, patterned after the famous\u00a0US Powerball<\/a>\u00a0,\u00a0has awarded some amazing jackpots! The record jackpot is\u00a0NZ$50 million<\/strong>, which was won in February 2020. Lotto enthusiasts enjoy playing New Zealand Powerball because of its 6\/40 format,\u00a0NZ$4 million<\/strong>\u00a0starting jackpot, and 14 prize divisions. A new change in the game rules made in April 2017 also means that if the jackpot reaches its maximum cap of\u00a0NZ$50 million<\/strong>\u00a0and isn’t won, all the winnings will automatically be passed down and shared between the next highest division’s winners!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
