A bettor from Bulacan won the jackpot prize of P5.9 million in the Lotto 6/42 draw on July 4.
The individual’s winning ticket, with the combination 10-19-31-27-18-25, ensured the lucky bettor of his dream house, he said.
The bettor said he has been a loyal patron since the start of the Lotto in 1995. He revealed that he had won five digits twice in his life as well as four and three digits several times, out of the winning six digits.
He added that it was “thrilling to witness that all of the numbers in his winning combination were drawn and in the PCSO’s live stream on Facebook.”
The bettor also said he trusts the PCSO Lotto draws and that in 20 years he was never disheartened.
He claimed his winnings, totaling P5,940,000.00, at the PCSO Main Office in Shaw Boulevard, Mandaluyong City, on July 7.
Under the Tax Reform Acceleration and Inclusion (TRAIN) Law, prizes above P10,000.00 are subject to a 20% final tax.
All winnings should be claimed within one year from the date of the draw or otherwise be forfeited to form part of the charity fund in accordance with the PCSO Charter (Republic Act No. 1169).
