A bettor from Negros Occidental hit Saturday night’s PHP35.4 million Lotto 6/42 jackpot.
In an advisory on Sunday, the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) said the winner from Bacolod City guessed the winning combination 22-34-42-19-03-25.
The winner has one year to claim the PHP35,467,492.71 prize at the PCSO main office in Mandaluyong City.
Under the Tax Reform for Acceleration and Inclusion law, lotto winnings worth more than PHP10,000 are subject to a 20-percent tax.
Meanwhile, 40 other bettors won PHP 27,500 each for guessing five out of the six winning digits; 2,413 won PHP414.42 each for four correct digits; and 27,974 will settle for PHP20 each for three correct digits.
The 6/42 Lotto is drawn every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday.
PCSO General Manager Melquiades Robles encouraged the public to support the agency’s gaming products to raise additional revenues for health initiatives, medical services and other national charities. *PNA
