65-year-old Bataan resident wins Php 51M in Super Lotto 6/49
MANILA, Philippines – After eighteen (18) years of trying, the 65-year-old native of Bataan finally got his luck by winning the Super Lotto 6/49 jackpot prize of 51,964,353.60 from the May 7, 2024 draw.
The lucky winner got all six (6) numbers via lucky pick (LP) with a winning combination of 40 – 18 – 07 – 06 – 24 – 27. What makes him luckier is that he only tried three (3) lucky pick combinations worth Sixty Pesos (60.00) only.
The winner testifies the legitimacy of Philippine Lottery as he declared that PCSO games and draws were real and authentic.
“Totoo naman na may nananalo sa lotto. Yung iba nanggugulo at naiinis kasi di sila nananalo kaya siguro sila gumagawa ng maling paratang laban sa PCSO. Hindi pwedeng ibulgar yung pagkatao ng mgananalo para sa kaligtasan nila, kung gusto nila para mapatunayan na walang dayaang lotto pwede naman sila mag punta sa PCSO dahil sigurado ako meron naman yan mga records na magpapatunay. Ang masasabi ko lang po, tunay at totoo ang lotto at marami ang nananalo kasama na ako.”
He plans to put up his own business in their province in Bataan and to save part of his winnings in the bank, “Plano ko po mag-negosyo nalang at ilagay sa bangko yung ibang napanalunan ko para di agad ito maubos. Napakalaking tulong nito sa akin habang ako ay nabubuhay,” he uttered with teary eyes.
Meanwhile, PCSO General Manager Melquiades A. Robles encourages the public to continue their support and patronage of all the gaming products of PCSO, including Lotto and Small Town Lottery (STL), to generate additional funds for the agency’s charity programs, saying,
“Tuloy-tuloy lang po tayo sa pagtangkilik sa ating Lotto at STL games dahil ang kinikita po dito ay ating ibinabalik din natin sa ating mga kababayan through our Charity Programs dahilang PCSO ay Hindi Umuurong sa Pagtulong!”
The lotto jackpot prize can only be claimed at the PCSO Main Office at Shaw Boulevard, Mandaluyong City. The winner must present the winning ticket and two (2) valid government IDs to claim his/her prize.
Under the Tax Reform Acceleration and Inclusion (TRAIN) Law, a 20% tax is automatically deducted from prizes above 10,000.00.
Pursuant to Republic Act 1169, the lotto ticket is valid for one (1) year from the date of the draw. Unclaimed prizes after one year will be forfeited.
