6/58 lotto pot to reach P153 million

MANILA, Philippines — The 6/58 Ultra Lotto’s jackpot is expected to reach P153 million for tonight’s draw, the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) said yesterday.

Royina Garma, PCSO general manager, said nobody won the six-digit winning combination 01-03-29-41-24-48, which had a prize of P147.965 million on Sunday.

Garma said four bettors would receive a consolation prize of P280,000 each after guessing five digits of the winning combination.

In October last year, a bettor who bought a lotto ticket from an outlet along Rizal Avenue in Manila won Ultra Lotto’s P244.927-million jackpot.

The online lottery game is drawn every Tuesday, Friday and Sunday.
