Seventy other bettors won P24,000 each for guessing five of the six winning digits; 2,327 will get P800 each for four correct digits; and 29,532 will settle for P20 each for three correct digits.

The 6/42 Lotto is drawn every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

The winners can claim their prizes at the PCSO main office in Mandaluyong City by presenting the winning ticket and two identification cards.

As provided in the Tax Reform for Acceleration and Inclusion law, lotto winnings of more than P10,000 shall be subject to a 20% tax.

Prizes not claimed within a year shall be forfeited.

PCSO General Manager Melquiades Robles urged the public to support the agency’s gaming products to raise additional revenue for health initiatives, medical services, and other national charities.

Through its mandatory contributions, the PCSO not only helps individuals in need of medical assistance but also provides funds to government institutions.
