A solo bettor has hit the jackpot in the Lotto 6/42 draw, winning an astounding P19.63 million on Thursday, August 15, 2024. The lucky player correctly guessed the winning combination of 21-11-30-16-19-03 to bag the exact prize of P19,630,380. The draw was conducted by the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO), which regularly holds lottery draws for millions of hopefuls across the country.
The bettor, who has yet to be identified, became the latest big winner of the Lotto 6/42 game, which is known for its long-running popularity in the Philippines. The winning combination for this particular draw featured a set of seemingly random numbers, yet the lucky individual was able to crack it and claim the coveted jackpot. As of the moment, the PCSO has not disclosed any further details about the winner, but the prize can be claimed at the PCSO’s main office in Mandaluyong City.

For the unclaimed portion of the game, the bettor has one year from the date of the draw to claim the prize, as stipulated by PCSO rules. A 20% tax, mandated by law, will be deducted from the total winnings, which means the winner will take home around P15.7 million after taxes.
Meanwhile, no player managed to win the jackpot for the Superlotto 6/49, which was drawn on the same night. The winning numbers for the Superlotto 6/49 draw were 05-29-39-43-27-04, but none of the tickets sold matched the full combination for the P15.84 million jackpot. As a result, the prize will carry over to the next draw, where the pot is expected to increase as more players participate in hopes of striking it rich.
The PCSO continues to encourage Filipinos to play responsibly and reminds everyone that the proceeds from the lottery are used to fund various charitable programs, including medical assistance, educational support, and health initiatives. Lotto draws like the 6/42 and Superlotto 6/49 remain some of the most highly anticipated events for millions of bettors nationwide.
