    A single ticket bought by a Christchurch player has won tonight's Powerball draw - collecting $20,250,000


    That includes a quarter share of First Division, where 3 other tickets without the Powerball number are worth $250,000.

    The Powerball winner was bought on My Lotto.

    The other 3 First Division tickets were bought from Woolworths Mt Eden in Auckland and on MyLotto to players from Taupo and the Waikato.

    Strike 4 was not struck tonight and jackpots to $400,000 for Wednesday night's draw.
