By Christopher Lloyd Caliwan | Philippine News Agency

 

A bettor who bought the ticket in Taytay, Rizal bagged the PHP163,365,304.40 jackpot prize during Friday night’s Ultra Lotto 6/58 draw.

In an advisory on Saturday, the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) said the lone winner guessed the right combination of 04-46-58-20-34-28.

Some 17 bettors guessed five correct numbers and will receive PHP120,000 each.

About 650 lottery ticket buyers got PHP2,000 each for getting four of the winning combinations while 15,718 bettors won PHP100 each for guessing three right combinations.

This is the second time this month that a sole bettor bagged the jackpot prize.

On August 2, a bettor in Bulacan became an instant millionaire after guessing the six-digit winning combination of the Super Lotto 6/49 draw.

The public is urged to keep on patronizing the products of PCSO as a large chunk of its revenues goes to charity programs. (PNA)
