GenSan bettor wins P106 M lotto jackpot
MANILA, Philippines—A lone bettor won P106.844 million Superlotto 6/49 jackpot Tuesday night, according to the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office.
The winner, who has yet to claim the prize, bought the winning ticket from a mall on J. Catolico Avenue in General Santos City, South Cotabato.
The PCSO said the bettor will take home a total of P106,844,122.80 for betting on the winning number combination of 39-42-38-07-10-12.
According to the agency, it was the biggest major prize won since June 29, when a 56-year-old housewife in Lipa City hit the more than P65 million jackpot in the PCSOs Grand Lotto draw that day.
Earlier this month, a 29-year-old employee from Compostela Valley in Southern Mindanao won the P17,812,605.60 jackpot prize of the 6/42 lotto during the July 9 draw.
The biggest lotto prize in recent history was won last November by a balikbayan who pocketed P741 million. A few months after, a 60-year-old carpenter and neighborhood watch member in Las Piñas City won the P356 million jackpot of the Grand Lotto.
