Cebu town bettor wins P28.8 million lotto jackpot

MANILA, Philippines — A bettor from Moalboal, Cebu won the jackpot in the 6/42 Regular Lotto drawn on Thursday night.

Royina Garma, Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office general manager and vice chairperson of the board, said the bettor guessed the six-digit winning combination 12-29-15-03-06-20, which had a jackpot of P28,851,800.80.

Up to 121 other bettors who hit five of the winning numbers won P24,000 each.

The Tax Reform for Inclusion and Acceleration Law imposes a 20 percent tax on lotto winnings above P10,000.

A bettor from Laguna also won the jackpot in the 6/42 Regular Lotto early this month. The winning ticket, which was bought at a lotto outlet in Bay, had a jackpot of P49.8 million. 

The 6/42 Regular Lotto is drawn every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday.
