Two bettors from Metro Manila and Samar province will split the P71.9 million jackpot of Tuesday night’s Super Lotto 6/49 draw.

In an advisory Wednesday, the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) said the winning combination 39-46-19-36-09-49 carried a total prize of P71,921,015.20.

The tickets were purchased in Quezon City and in Samar, Western Samar.

Meanwhile, two others won P50,000 each for guessing five of the six winning digits; 1,158 will get P1,200 each for four correct digits; and 14,983 will settle for P50 each for three correct digits.

As specified in Republic Act 1169, or the law on PCSO lotteries, winners have one year from the date of the draw to claim the prize.

All jackpot prizes must be claimed at the PCSO main office along Shaw Boulevard, Mandaluyong City. Lotto winnings of more than P10,000 are subject to a 20% tax under the Tax Reform for Acceleration and Inclusion Law.

The Super Lotto 6/49 is drawn every Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday.

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 people in need of medical assistance but also provides funds to government institutions.
