 A 43-year-old company collector with two children  from Quezon City who continuously placed his bets on his favorite numbers for 10 years finally bear the fruit of his labor after winning the Mega Lotto 6/45’s P46,557,326.60 jackpot on May 20 draw.


The lucky bettor bought four combination worth P80.

He got half of the purse, P23,228.663.30, as he was joined by another lucky bettor from Manila.

The lucky bettor from Manila is a newly married 20 years old and unemployed.
He only bought one lotto combination worth P20 or just a single bet.


Here's something to think about:

How come you never see a News headline like    " A Manghuhula (Psychic) wins a lotto jackpot " ?


The new Lotto  prize structure effective May 17, 2013

The minimum jackpot prizes were doubled for two of the games: for Lotto 6/42, from P3 million to P6 million, and for the Mega Lotto 6/45, from P4.5 million to P9 million.

The price-per-combination of these two games were pegged at P20 from P10.

The price per combination (P20) and minimum jackpot prizes of Super Lotto 6/49 (P16 million) and Grand Lotto 6/55 (P30 million) remain unchanged.

The prize structure of the second to fourth prizes of all the lotto games were altered. For the second and third prizes, a parimutuel system was adopted wherein the prizes reflect the total sales pool for that particular draw.

Under such a system, the higher the sales, the higher the possible second to third prizes may be, unlike formerly when they were fixed.

Players may in fact, be able to win higher prizes than before. 

For the first prizes - 6 out of 6 numbers

A religious lotto bettor says ..... one bet will do.

If he wants to make me a millionaire overnight, He’d give it to me even if I only have one bet.

Many lotto bettors have won the jackpot with only one bet and that has been proven many times.


I remember my article  dated July 6, 2012.

It was a 1-in-29 million shot and all it took to win it all was a single bet or a  P20 bet.

One lucky bettor won the P163.92-million jackpot prize in the  6/55 Grand Lotto draw—dated  July 2012 .

The lone bettor from Bicol hit the winning combination of  10-26-32-36-37-49.

The lone winner placed a single bet of P20 on the maintained numbers at a lotto outlet in Sorsogon City in Bicol.

Just Imagine one single bet worth P20.


6/45 2 winners
Draw date: 5/20/2013
Jackpot Prize P46,457,326.60
7-10-19-21-22-28

Another single bet lotto jackpot winner.

A lucky bettor won half of the 6/45 lotto jackpot drawn last May 20, 2013.

A newly married 20 years old and unemployed  lotto bettor from Manila won  half of the total jackpot prize of  P46,457,326.60.

His winning share was P 23,228,663.30
He only bought one lotto combination worth P20 or just a single bet.

This guy is really very lucky.  Maybe he said to God, If he wants to make him a millionaire overnight, He’d give it to him even if he only have one bet.



Have you ever been praying for something and it just seems like the deadline is drawing near and God hasn’t answered yet?

Maybe you have financial problems and bills are due and it looks as if God doesn’t care about your situation.

Just remember—God is never late, He’s never early and He’s always on time.




Winning lotto ticket in a cookie Jar

CINCINATTI - For two years, Rick and Bonnie Cerezo worried they would lose their home.

"Our lawyer had been telling us for a while to prepare for the worst," Ricks said.

Their house near Chicago was in foreclosure, and in February a judge told them to be ready to leave.
"What are we gonna do if they throw us out?" said Bonnie. "What are we gonna do if when we come into the house there's a lock on the door and we can't get in?"

Their money problems started when their 12-year-old daughter Savannah was diagnosed with severe bi-polar disorder.

After rick quit his job to care for Savannah, and the medical bills piled up. money was tight.
"When it comes to your children, you just don't care. You give it all. So here goes the savings, there goes the IRA -- his, mine," Bonne said.

Everything was gone," said Rick. "We even at one point sold our wedding bands."

Bonnie said her daughter asked her parents about why they had no money. "How can I ever repay all of what you guys have sacrificed to give me a chance at a good life?" Bonnie recalled her saying.

Last August, Savannah died suddenly of a seizure.

Still grieving, Rick began buying four lottery tickets a week. A month ago, Bonnie got sick of watching the the tickets collect dust in a cookie jar and told Rick to get the tickets checked, or she'd toss them.

The first ten were losers. The eleventh, three bucks. But the next was worth $4.8 million.
Rick and Bonnie are convinced it's Savannah repaying them

"I would imagine that the second she that she took her last breath, and I delivered her to God, and God grabbed her hand, she was immediately nagging God and ask  start doing something for them," they said.

The first installment check came the day after Mother's Day. Another will come every February.

We have 26 years of knowing that every year, on Savannah's birth month, our gift is there," Rick said.

"For me the real win is that I don't have to pack up my daughter's room, that her existence won't be confined to a box marked 'Savannah's room.'"

Some people would call them lucky, but the Cereno's know they've been given a gift.

A lotto bettor once said .....

One reason I buy lotto is .... for  the pleasant daydreaming I will have for a few days before the numbers are drawn.


EFFECTIVE May 17, the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) doubled its betting price from P10 to P20 per combination, as well as the jackpot prizes, for the Lotto 6/42 and Megalotto 6/45 games.

The minimum jackpot prizes also increased  from P3 Million to P6 Million for Lotto 6/42 and from P4.5 Million to P9 Million for Megalotto 6/45.



I love this story .....

She started charity with her lottery winnings.

Sheelah Ryan, who won a $55.2 million lottery prize in 1988 and spent the following years giving the money away, died  at her home in  Orlando suburb. She was 69.



The cause was cancer.

Mrs. Ryan won the jackpot in the Florida Lottery on Sept. 3, 1988, and in December that year she set up a charitable foundation that donated to poor children in need of operations.

The Ryan Foundation also built low-cost housing and paid overdue rent to spare single mothers and their children from eviction.

"I think it was by the grace of God I won," Mrs. Ryan said in 1989. "I realized there must have been a reason He gave me the money, so I decided to give some of it to senior citizens and the homeless."

With her jackpot, Mrs. Ryan became the largest individual lottery winner in American history, a distinction she held until a Wisconsin man won a $110 million prize last year. Mrs. Ryan's jackpot was payable over 20 years in annual installments, and she had received about $16.6 million. The remainder will go to her estate

Pamela Ohab, who serves on the foundation's board, said it "will definitely continue."

"It's really her legacy, and that's what she wanted, She left it very well funded." The foundation declined to say how much money it had given away.

Mrs. Ryan, who was born in New York City, worked part time selling real estate before she won the lottery.

What a luck  .......

This story happened way back March 18, 2013.

A 21-year-old fresh college grad from Pasig won by accident in the March 18 Mega Lotto 6/45′s P43-million draw.

The woman claimed her winnings totaling P43,000,342.20 in the 6/45 draw with winning combination 3-8-11-16-21-29.

The woman said she asked the teller for a Lotto 6/42 card but was instead given a 6/45 card. She was to hand back the 6/45 card but changed her mind and placed three bets for that draw that made her an instant millionaire.

A 56 years old lotto bettor from Caloocan City  won the 6/45 draw last April 29. 2013 with a jackpot prize of  P 45,049,768.20 million

The lucky bettor once work with NAWASA as a pipeline man and has 3 children.
He bought 3 lotto combination worth P30 pesos.

Once in danger of losing his house because he had no money to pay his debts, this former pipe line worker at the defunct National Waterworks and Sewerage Authority (Nawasa) ultimately had the last laugh.

At one point, during a court hearing, a government lawyer mockingly told him that the only way he and his family could avoid eviction from their Caloocan City house and pay their debts—amounting to P300,000 at the time—was for him to win the lotto.

He did just that.

On Tuesday, he took home P45,049,768.20 for winning the jackpot in the  Megalotto 6/45 draw held on April 29.

The lone winner placed bets worth P30 and used the birth date of a grandchild and the “random pick” system to get the winning combination of   9-14-17-21-34-37.

Two lotto bettors hit last Tuesday's  Super Lotto 6/49’s P95-million jackpot.

The two winners bought their  tickets  from a lotto outlet located in  Manila and Quezon province.

They are the 11th and 12th new lotto millionaires  for the month of April.




The misery of the £38million lotto syndicate winners.


The 12 broke bus drivers pocketed more than £38 million each but found that winning the lottery can bring its own problems.

Twelve broke bus drivers thought that sharing a £38million Lotto fortune would be just the ticket.
With no need to ever work again, they were surely on the road to stress-free lives of luxury.
But the men, who pocketed more than 3 million each, have found that winning the Lottery can bring misery in its wake.

They have endured family feuds, sponging by strangers and stress-driven health scares that landed one in hospital.

Four of the working-class mates from Corby, Northants, have left the town, two of them quitting Britain completely, due to problems mirroring TV’s drama about Lotto winners The Syndicate.

John Noakes, a cheery former Bus Driver of the Year, admitted the pressure of his wealth drove him to start smoking again.

He said: “Becoming multi-millionaires changed our lives – but not all for the good. It’s caused a lot of hassle. There have been learning curves and hard times.

“I’ve had to learn to adapt to having a huge amount of money and keeping track of everything.
“You can’t be too extravagant, it’s better to err on the side of caution. I don’t buy brand new even though I can afford to.

“The transition from being broke to rich has been tough. Now I’ve got lots of money, I’ve got to be careful. It has to last.

“I’ve lost track of my buddies. I had some really good friends but they don’t want to know now. We never see each other. We move in different circles, which is a pity.

“People assume you’ve changed because you’re loaded – but I haven’t changed one bit.”

The Stagecoach workers hit the Euromillions jackpot in March last year, with £3,169,553 each.
John immediately quit the £18,000-a-year job that he loved.

But he has since learned the hard way that money does not always buy happiness.
John explained: “Having money pays your bills but it can never solve all life’s problems. Sometimes I wish I’d never won. On reflection, I’m glad I did. But I wish it could be a better situation.
“I started smoking again the other week because of all the stress. It can be tough trying to be equally fair to your family and not upsetting any of them.”

He has also been hurt by his former employers, who snubbed his offer to help out free of charge when they were short staffed during last summer’s Olympics.

John said: “I was told my services weren’t required because I’d left so abruptly. I was gutted!
“Giving up work was tough because I genuinely loved my job. I still miss working.”

John also told how people have begged for money and booze. One reveller at a music festival ordered: “Buy us a drink, mate!” John replied: “I’ve never bought you a drink in your life, I’m not going to start now.”

He added: “I’ve had people coming up to me in the street, complete strangers, saying, ‘You’re that Lotto winner. Give us some money, pal.’ I carry on walking.”

But John admitted he has enjoyed splashing out. His purchases include an Aston Martin Vantage sports car, a luxury Range Rover “complete with bling” and a ­people carrier.

There is also a snooker table, his and hers car racing simulators – better, he boasts, than Lewis Hamilton’s – a tennis court and a parrot called Mac.

And he is buying a boat, but nothing too “flashy”. But when treating themselves, John, 50, and his second wife Jean, 49, cannot completely forget the old ways of thrift that were once essential.

Even the Aston is second hand. John said: “Why buy a brand new car? They lose value and it’s a waste of money.” Jean added: “Why buy designer clothes just for the label? I still look for bargains on the rail.” The couple have been sure to treat their families, though.

They bought six houses, four of them for their children from previous marriages. They have also helped their five grand children and nine brothers and sisters. John said: “We’ve bought decent stuff for ourselves but most importantly we’ve been able to help our kids.

“We’ve given them the breaks  we never had and taken away any financial worries. You’ve got to look after family.

Before the win we were  struggling. We’re working class and in the past it’s always been where’s the next penny coming from.” The couple even shop at bargain store Poundland – and buy Lottery tickets.

John says his biggest windfall is former factory worker Jean getting the all-clear from breast cancer. Sadly, last week they were preparing to leave the smart home in Corby they bought with their winnings. Next month they move to a villa in Cyprus.
John said: “The past year has been madness. This chapter’s closing and we’re moving on, just the two of us.”

Another of the syndicate quitting Britain is Alex Robertson, 58. He is heading for Spain to escape family rows following his windfall – which ended with him in hospital suffering chest pains.

He said recently: “It’s been nothing but grief.” Meanwhile John is “heartbroken” after having to sell his prized Aston Martin. The car’s soft top, he explained, would not survive the heat in his new home Cyprus.
He added: “I couldn’t give it away to my family – who would I have chosen?”
