A lone bettor has become an instant multi-millionaire after bagging the P163,365,304 jackpot price during Friday night’s Ultra Lotto 6/58 draw, the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office said in an advisory Saturday.
The winner bought in Taytay, Rizal the lucky ticket bearing the right combination 04-46-58-20-34-28.
Seventeen other bettors will receive P120,000 each for guessing five correct numbers.
PCSO said it was the second time this month that a sole bettor hit the jackpot.
It added that on 2 August, a bettor in Bulacan became an instant millionaire after guessing the six-digit winning combination of the Super Lotto 6/49 draw.
As a large chunk of its revenues goes to charity programs, the PCSO urged the public is urged to keep on patronizing the products.
