Winning Lotto numbers came in a dream

While searching for some lotto news. I found a very interesting story about a lotto winner who got his winning lotto numbers from a dream.

Dec 1, 2011

An Auckland multimillionaire pensioner saw his winning Lotto numbers in a dream.

The Auckland man, believed to be in his 60s, won $6,142,857 in Saturday night's Lotto Powerball draw after buying his ticket from St Lukes Lotto.

The winner, who wishes to remain anonymous, is a regular Lotto player who picks his own numbers, and changes them from time to time.

A family spokesperson said the winner changed his Lotto ticket numbers after seeing the sequence in a dream.

"About five or six weeks ago, he dreamed of a set of Lotto numbers, so he changed his ticket to these new numbers."

"He [the winner] called me up on Sunday saying he thought he'd won something, but he'd not heard all of the numbers. I looked them up on the internet for him and read them out while he checked them off, and he just kept saying 'yes, yes, yes' and we realised he'd got them all!"

"It's pretty overwhelming winning such a large sum of money, right now he's just going to put it in the bank while he decides what he will be doing with it," said the spokesperson.

The winner is a Lotto regular aged, who visited St Lukes shopping mall daily.

He returned to the Lotto shop on Monday to check the winning numbers with his son, daughter in law and another female relative for support.

Senior wins P24-M 6/42 jackpot


Manila, Philippines – An 80-year-old retired government employee from Paco, Manila won the P24,195,270.60 jackpot in the Lotto 6/42 draw last Tuesday. Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) General Manager Jose Ferdinand M. Rojas II said the winner placed a bet in a lotto outlet in Paco and claimed her prize, accompanied by a grandchild, yesterday at the PCSO in Pasay City.

Lawyer Lauro A. Patiag, PCSO Internal Audit Department manager, said she placed five Lucky Pick bets worth P50 and of them matched the six-number winning combination 20-42-28-11-13-37. She told Patiag that since all her six children have all finished their studies and with their own families, she will just give them a share of the prize and make them millionaires.


Lone bettor wins 6/49 lotto jackpot.


A lucky bettor from Pagadian City, Zamboanga del Sur, won the Super Lotto 6/49′s draw last Sunday (Dec. 11, 2011) with a P40,230,496 jackpot.


Lotto winner borrows money for fare to Manila.


MANILA, Philippines — A 52-year-old low-salaried government worker of Pagadian City, Zamboanga del Sur, was forced to borrow money, although rejected by many of his neighbors, to defray the cost of plane fares that would take him and his wife to Manila to claim the P40,230,496.80 jackpot he won on the December 11 lotto draw.

As much as they wanted to, they could not claim the winnings early because they did not have the money to buy plane tickets.

The government worker and his wife approached neighbors after learning that one of his two System 7 bets (each worth P140) matched last Sundays' Super Lotto 6/49 winning combination of 48-18-42-08-21-34, giving him the prize at stake.

They practically begged their neighbors to lend them money so they could buy airplane tickets to Manila. Not one of their neighbors played Good Samaritan.. If only they knew.

Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) General Manager Jose Ferdinand M. Rojas II said the winner started playing lotto in 1997, doing it regularly even as his family struggled with day-to-day survival.

When they did not get any help from their neighbors, the couple went to another village and got some amount from some people, eventually accumulating enough for their tickets, Rojas said.

They arrived in Manila Thursday after four days of practically begging for help, he added.

Citing a report by Lauro A Patiag, PCSO's Internal Audit Department manager, Rojas said the government employee used birth dates and ages of his wife and four children for his bets.

For the December 11 draw of 6/49, the PCSO official said the winner had two System 7 bets, for a total of 14 six-number combination.

Unbelievable 3 True Stories Of Lotto Winners

Have you notice that the lotto jackpot prize of 6/49,6/42 and 6/55 which are 50m, 60m and 70m. has not been won up to now ? Strange ....


A comment from a lotto bettor.

When nothing is sure, everything is possible...

When you are DOWN to nothing... God is UP to something! Faith sees the invisible, believes the incredible and receives the impossible!



While searching for a lotto story, I found 3 unbelievable But True Stories Of Lotto Winners.


The Man who Bought 700 same combinations of 4 digits Lotto Tickets


William Harvey had a dream. He dreamed of his dead mother. He thought that dream must have been a sign, so he decided to use his dead mother's birthday, the 29th of December (29/12) as lottery numbers. He decided to play New York Lottery's Win 4 game. Win 4 pays out $5000 for matching all four numbers.

William Harvey played the numbers 2912 as his Win 4 numbers. But he didn't buy just one ticket. Nope, he bought 700 tickets... All with the same numbers, 2912. As luck would have it, he won... 700 times... For a grand total of $3.5 million! Did his dead mother have something to do with this? Who knows! Eerie? Yes! Unbelievable? Yes! But true!



The Man That Had A Premonition In A Dream


Some people consider an itchy palm to be a premonition of a lottery win. My palms itch every day and I've never won the lottery, so that can't be true. But in certain cultures, a wheelbarrow full of money represents future riches. So is the case for Eugeniusz Borek, a Polish man that had a dream that he was pushing a wheelbarrow full of money with two friends. When he awoke from that dream, he was so certain that money was coming his way, that he and two friends bought some lottery tickets. What happened with this story? Well, just two days after his dream, Eugeniusz Borek and his two friends won $50 million in Canada's Lotto Max. Unbelievable, but true!



The Guy That Lost His Ticket And Had It Returned By A Stranger


Imagine finally winning the lottery, only to lose the ticket. Don't think it could happen? It happened. In 1986, a man named Jean-Guy Lavigueuer won $7.6 million in the lottery. He stuffed his winning ticket into his wallet and, subsequently, lost that same wallet. Arghhhh... He thought it was lost forever. But not so - A total stranger found his wallet, saw the winning lottery ticket, yet still found it in himself to return it to its rightful owner. And you thought there were no more honest people in this world! Unbelievable, but true!

Man dies after winning lotto jackpot

Security guard wins P48M lotto jackpot.

A security guard, the lone winner of the October 17,2011 6/45 Mega Lotto jackpot prize, claimed his prize on Monday.

The security guard, a 40-year-old San Jose Del Monte, Bulacan resident, was the winner of the P47,959,961.40 jackpot prize.

He used the winning combination of 9-7-22-6-10-41.

He said he will donate part of his money to his local church, while the rest will be used to pay his house’s mortgage.

The winner, who has 2 children, said he also plans to build a new business using his money.

The winner, a regular lotto bettor, placed two P10 “Lucky Pick“ (LP) bets. An LP bet means that the numbers were chosen by the computer.



The man who won the lottery , died from a heart attack that same day.


Donald Peters has got to be both the luckiest and unluckiest man on the day of his death. Well, unlucky because he suffered a heart attack and died, but lucky because he just bought the winning lottery ticket that provided for his family. The Peters children think their father would have appreciated the irony.

Peters bought two Connecticut Lottery tickets at a local 7-Eleven store as part of a 20-year tradition he shared with his wife Charlotte. Later that day, the 79-year-old retired hat factory worker suffered a fatal heart attack while working in his yard in Danbury.

Donald Peters usually bought the tickets for 10 weeks at a stretch, so the winning ticket he bought was among several that Charlotte Peters put aside as she, their three children and two grandchildren coped with his sudden death
$10M lottery ticket Donald Peters bought before death will help wife and family.


DANBURY, Conn. - One of Donald Peters' final acts has resulted in a lasting legacy of financial security for his wife of 59 years and their family.

On Nov. 1, Peters bought two Connecticut Lottery tickets at a local 7-Eleven store as part of a 20-year tradition he shared with his wife, Charlotte. Later that day, the 79-year-old retired hat factory worker suffered a fatal heart attack while working in his Danbury yard.

On Friday, his widow cashed in one of the tickets: a $10 million winner which, in her grief over her husband's death, she had put aside and almost discarded before recently checking the numbers.
"I'm numb," Charlotte Peters, 79, said Friday at Connecticut Lottery headquarters in Rocky Hill. "I'm still numb."

Donald Peters had been purchasing lottery tickets for himself and his wife for two decades, picking his own numbers and making sure to sprinkle lots of odd numbers in Charlotte's as she liked.

He usually bought them for 10 weeks at a stretch, so the winning ticket he bought Nov. 1 for the Dec. 2 drawing was among several that Charlotte Peters put aside as she and her three children and two grandchildren coped with his sudden death.
In fact, she said she almost tossed the winning ticket in the trash.

"I was in the grocery store and I had it checked and they told me I was a winner," she said. "I had no idea how much it was."
She said more surprises came when she claimed her winnings Friday. Originally thinking she'd won $6 million, she was surprised to learn from lottery officials she'd won $10 million.

True to his wife's wishes, Donald Peters had picked a ticket in which five of the six numbers were odd: 02-07-09-11-27-33.

Charlotte Peters has 60 days to decide whether to take a $6 million pre-tax lump sum payment or stretch the winnings into 21 yearly payments of almost $477,300 each.

She does not yet know what she will do with the money, and plans to consult an accountant and lawyer.

Lotto Curse ?

Sad stories of lotto jackpot winners....

Every week, millions of people buy lottery tickets in the hope that this week, finally, it will be their turn to win big. But is being a lottery millionaire all it’s made out to be? Not according to this sorry bunch...

Who wants to be a millionaire? Most people, surely (except billionaires or course). But sadly, winning a truck-load of money on the lottery, any lottery, comes with a heap of baggage.

Day dreams of a millionaire lifestyle seem to have a habit of turning sour faster than a sub-prime mortgage – isolation, paranoia, drugs, crime, poverty and prison await those who fail to adjust, as this top ten of ‘Lottery Losers’ shows:

1. Jack Whittaker won a record $314.9m Powerball jackpot in 2002.
But life since then has been a long list of arrests, lawsuits, broken relationships and even death. In 2007, his then wife, Jewell admitted she wished she had ‘torn up the ticket’.

2. William "Bud" Post won $16.2 million in the Pennsylvania lottery in 1988.
He later described the experience as a ‘nightmare’ and wishes it had never happened – who can blame him after he was sued by a former girlfriend eager to get her hands on the cash and his brother hired a hitman in the hope of inheriting the winnings. He invested in ill-fated family businesses and within a year was $1m in debt. Today he gets by on social security payments.

3. Luke Pittard from Wales won a ‘measly’ £1.3m on the National Lottery.
After the novelty had worn off and the obligatory lavish holiday, wedding and new home were done and dusted, he got bored and returned to work at MacDonalds.

4. An as-yet-unnamed Sicilian won £79m on the Italian lottery in 2008.
Before he or she could even collect the winnings consumer groups were demanding that the windfall be seized by the government. The winner has since gone into hiding, fearing the Mafia will come calling.

5. Janite Lee won $18 million in 1993.
Her generosity in giving money to a variety of political, educational and community causes was commendable – but just eight years later she filed for bankruptcy.

6. Mark Gardiner from London won £11m in 1995.
Thirteen miserable years later, he hasn’t lost his money, but he has lost all his friends - even the ones he treated to new £100,000 homes – and lost touch with his family.

7. Michael Carroll won a £9.7m National Lottery jackpot in 2002.
Since then he has appeared in court more than 30 times and been jailed for drug related offences. In 2008, he admitted that ‘just’ £500,000 of his windfall remained.

8. Willie Hurt won $3.1 million in 1989.
Two years later the money was gone and he was on a murder charge. Hurt spent his fortune on a divorce and crack cocaine.

9. Charles Riddle won $1 million in 1975.
The original lottery car crash, he quickly got divorced, faced several lawsuits and was eventually indicted for selling cocaine.

10. Ken Proxmire won $1 million in the Michigan lottery.
He moved to California, and invested in a car business with his brothers. Five years later, he was bankrupt and back working as a machinist.

Lucky Brothers .....

Three lucky bettors will share P94.897 million after hitting the jackpot in Sunday (Oct.9, 2011) night's Superlotto 6/49 draw.

Two of the three winners of the P94,897,000 jackpot prize in the 6/49 Super Lotto draw last Sunday are biological brothers.

A government soldier and his brother won P31,632,333.60 each after they both bet on the winning number combination 5-25-8-21-17-6.

According to them, the combination is based on their birth dates and their parents’ birth dates.

They said they plan to use the cash to start a business and buy a house and lot.

The third winner of the 6/49 Super Lotto jackpot prize is a bettor from Boac, Marinduque.


The winners placed their bets for the Super Lotto 6/49 draw in lotto outlets on F.B. Harrison St., Pasay City; Soldiers’ Mall, Camp Aguinaldo, Quezon City; and Boac, Marinduque.


The winning combination had been maintained by the elder brother, 48, a soldier whose duty often takes him out of town and who usually asks his brother the electrician, 45, to buy a P20 lotto ticket so that they would not miss the draw.


Last Sunday, the soldier, who was then on duty at Camp Aguinaldo in Quezon City, sent a text message to his brother requesting him to buy a lotto ticket as usual. The younger brother bought one ticket for P20 at the lotto outlet along Harrison St. in Pasay City.

The soldier, however, had another idea and went out to the Soldiers’ Mall near Camp Aguinaldo and also bought one lotto ticket using the same number combination that his younger brother used. The number combination later won the Super Lotto jackpot.

The soldier has five children while his younger brother has two kids.

The younger brother had left his family in Davao City to look for work in Manila.


Aside from the 3 jackpot prize winners, 549 players won the P56,000 second prize, and 5,424 won the third prize of P1,000 each.


Super Lotto 6/49 now has 25 jackpot winners this year who won a total of P760,890,719.20.

Multiple winners of a single lotto jackpot are not rare. It happened once this year in the Mega Lotto 6/45 draw last January 7 with six winners sharing the P4,955,526 jackpot.


A few years ago, a police official also shared the lotto jackpot with his police aide whom he sent to buy the lotto tickets.

The police official had maintained the number combination that also represents the birthdays of family members.

The official usually sent his aide to buy lotto tickets at the PCSO outlet near Camp Crame in Quezon City, but the aide also placed his bets on the number combination of his boss.

Lotto winning tips...

MANILA, Philippines — A 35-year-old married Ilongga of Iloilo City Thursday joined the lotto instant millionaires' club as she claimed her winnings Wednesday of P8,221,248 from the Sept. 24 draw of Lotto 6/42.

PCSO General Manager Jose Ferdinand M. Rojas II said three Lucky Pick bets worth P30, where the lotto computer selected the numbers.

One of her three six-number combinations matched the winning numbers of 10-12-15-02-04-31, Rojas said, getting details from the report of Internal Audit Department (PCSO-IAD) Manager Lauro M. Patiag.

With her winnings, he said the newspaper dealer, who has a child, plans to expand her business, invest on some real state properties, and save the rest for rainy days. The winner came with her husband and her mother when she claimed the 6/42 jackpot on Oct. 5 in the afternoon at the PCSO headquarters in Pasay City, he added.

Meanwhile, the biggest winner in September last month, who hit the P72.5-million jackpot in the Grand Lotto 6/55 draw on Sept. 28 still has to claim the bonanza, said Patiag.

While searching for a lotto story, I found a great article that can help you win the lotto .

If you want to win the lottery, you need this tips.

Have you ever dreamt of winning the Lottery? Can you imagine how it must feel?... Maybe you constantly tell people that you are destined to one day win the lottery jackpot...

In a recent lottery survey, lottery jackpot winners were asked if they had ever thought the same thing. 38 % of the winners stated that they had always believed they would win the lottery, and more than half said that they had dreamt that it would happen. 51% of the lottery winners said they had always considered that they were 'fortunate' people.

So, could positive thinking and the law of attraction hold the key?...

Recently, there is more and more talk about the law of attraction. Basically, it says that like attract like, and that what we 'think' about most, we attract into our lives. Now, before I loose you, let me just say that this is a Universal Law, and just like gravity although we can not see it, we know it exists.

Basically, it means that whatever thoughts we focus on the most, we will attract into our lives. If you are always dreaming of winning the lottery, then you are attracting this to you. On the flip side, telling people how 'unlucky' you are will just create more 'bad luck' in your life. Wait a minute, I can hear you squealing 'If that's the case, how come I'm not a lottery millionaire? I'm always telling people that I will win it one day, and dreaming of getting the big one'

The law is very simple, however most of us will have very unfocused thoughts running around our head. So you may one minute be saying "I want to win the lottery" and the law of attraction will be set into motion. Then your mind will try and rationalize with you and say "Stop being silly, you'll never win" In that very moment, you are cancelling out your wish to win the National Lottery and stopping the flow of energy.

What we now know is that emotions will increase your thought vibrations so as soon as you start feeling that you can't win, this will push your dream even further out of your grasp.

By simply understanding how the Law of Attraction works, and choosing to change your thoughts so that they are positive, you will be able to manifest more of your desires. If you have a deep rooted belief that you are unlucky' or always broke' then you may find you have to work harder at this whole manifestation lark you may want do a bit more research into the law. One great starting place is to watch The Secret' this movie has transformed many thousands of people's lives Worldwide and you can watch the first 20 minutes for free on YouTube.

Following are some top tips on how to improve your chances for winning the lottery:

1.Decide how much you want to win on the lottery

Write this figure down on several bits of paper and put around the house or office where you will see it often. For example, on the fridge, on the ceiling above your bed, next to the computer. It needs to be a figure you believe' if you want a million pounds but your mind screams dream on', then choose a figure that is more acceptable to you.

2.Say Affirmations

Every morning and evening, look at this figure and say I have won X pounds on the lottery and all of my dreams are coming true 'replacing X with the amount you desire. You can make up your own lottery affirmations; make sure that you say the sentence as if it has already happened, that it is in the present tense. Jump up and down; scream Thank You!' picture in your mind what you would do, get excited and feel grateful

3.Visualize

Before getting out of bed and just before dropping off to sleep, imagine what you would do with the money, how you would feel visualize how that amount of money would look like.

4.Feel thankful that you will win the lottery

Believe that the winning ticket is coming to you! Feel grateful

5.Buy a ticket!

This is the most important step. To give yours dreams a chance, you MUST take action. It is amazing how many people say they plan on winning the lottery but never get off their sweet behind to buy a ticket.

6.Have fun

Once you have purchased your ticket, go and relax and do something that makes you laugh. Forget all about your numbers. What will be, will be. By having fun and laughing, you will increase your positive vibration and that will make you more attractive to wealth

Get started now, write down the amount you want to win and give it a go what do you have to lose?

Lotto Winners

While searching for some lotto news. I found 2 very interesting stories.

A lotto winner who kept his winnings from his wife and a man who has a amnesia that doubled his winnings.


Never tell your wife ...

Woman googles husband, finds he won the lottery but never told her.

On 2007, Donna Campbell became suspicious of her husband, Arnim Ramdass, when he started to keep the television turned off and disconnected the phone line. Her suspicions rose when she found a postcard about a new home purchase.

But Campbell was unaware that her husband was hiding a $10.2 million secret from her until she Googled her husband's name and lottery number. She found a Florida lottery press release that named 17 airline mechanics who won the jackpot, her husband was one of them.

The group of mechanics opted for the lump-sum payment of $10.2 million, meaning each of the 17 winners would receive about $600,000 before taxes. Since the winning, Ramdass took a leave of absence from work, according to his co-workers. He hasn't shown up at the couple's home and servers can't find him to hand him the lawsuit papers: she wants half the money and out of the marriage.


Amnesia ...

Doubled his share of the jackpot... by mistake!

When Derek Ladner next suffers from absent mindedness, he may think twice before cursing his poor memory. For the 57-year-old's forgetfulness has landed him an amazing double lottery win.

He and his wife Dawn were elated when their six regular numbers came up on the midweek draw on 2007. They were quick to claim their £479,142 share of the £2,395,710 jackpot split between five winners. But, incredibly, a week later Mr Ladner remembered he had bought another ticket with the same numbers for the same draw.

That gave him two of the five shares of the jackpot on July 11, doubling his winnings to £958,284. A spokesman for lottery operator Camelot said it was the first time a player had won twice in the same draw! Mr Ladner's forgetfulness cost the other three winners almost £120,000 each. Had he not bought the extra ticket, they would have split the jackpot four ways instead of five and won £598,927 a person.

Lotto jackpot prize forfeited to charity

A lone bettor in Caloocan City defied an enormous one-in-28.99 million odds in the 6/55 lotto draw by winning Wednesday evening the jackpot at stake worth P142,859,048.40.

The bettor bought his winning ticket from a lotto outlet on Marcelo H. Del Pilar Street, Grace Park, Caloocan City.
The winning numbers are 1-6-9-16-35-40.


Meanwhile, 34 bettors won the consolation prize of P150,000 each for picking 5 correct numbers.

A total of 2,025 winners received P2,000 each for getting 4 out of 6 numbers.

While 40,107 more won P150 for getting 3 correct numbers.



Did you Know that ....

A total of P605,273,958.20 in unclaimed prizes for all online lotto games of the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) in the Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao draws has been forfeited after the one-year period to claim expired.

According to PCSO records, the forfeited prizes were mostly minor prizes of the EZ 2, the 3-digit game, 4-digit game, 6-digit game, 6/42, the Mega Lotto, the 6/42 the 6/49 Super Lotto and the short-lived Power Lotto game.

The unclaimed prizes which represent 55 percent of the total sales of the online lotto games will be reverted to the charity fund of the agency.

Unclaimed prizes revert and form part of the charity fund after one year.


Lotto jackpot prize forfeited to charity

An anonymous lotto bettor forfeited to charity a total P173,918,451.60 after failing to claim the amount as his prize in winning the Super Lotto 6/49 jackpot on February 22, 2009.

The forfeited money represents half of the record P347,836,903.20 jackpot prize that went up for grabs during the February 22, 2009 Superlotto 6/49 draw.

The other half was won and claimed by a 50-year-old Caloocan City housewife who purchased the winning ticket from the lotto outlet of Alicia Ildefonso on Jose Street, Malibay, Pasay City.

A sad story for a very young lotto winner

The jackpot prize for the 6/55 Grand Lotto is expected to reach P120 million in tomorrows draw. (Saturday Aug.20 2011)

Wednesday draw. (Aug. 17 2011)
No winner.

Those who placed bets failed to correctly pick the winning six-number combination of 20-24-37-39-47-55

There were 12 that got P150,000 each for picking five out of the six numbers.

A total of 837 bets that got four out of six numbers and won P2,000 each.

while 20,963 others won P150 for picking three correct numbers.

The jackpot for last Wednesday night’s draw totaled P113,547,520.80.


Mondays draw (Aug.15 2011)

The jackpot prize for the 6/55 Grand Lotto - P103,913,251.20 million.

Nobody hit the six-digit winning combination of 6-7-17-26-31-39, at least 35 bettors won the second prize of P150,000 after getting five digits of the winning combination.




I found a sad old story about a lotto winner who I would say was to young for a lotto windfall.


Callie Rogers Wishes She Never Won the Lottery.

Callie Rogers, a young woman who won the lottery when she was just 16-years-old, has revealed that her drug use and wild ways led her to spend all of her winnings.

Callie Rogers, who was living in England, won over $3 million in the lottery when she was just 16-years-old - and she wishes she never won the money.

She tells 'News of the World': "I honestly wish I'd never won the lottery money - and knowing what I know now I should have just given it all back to them.”

Rogers bought homes for herself, her parents and her grandmother. She bought pricey cars and gifts and lent money to relatives. She bought more than $730,000 worth of designer clothes, and got breast implants. She spent about $400,000 on cocaine for her boyfriend.

She says of her spending: "I might as well have thrown it down the toilet."

Six years later, Rogers is now 22-years-old and the mother of two young children. All she has left of her millions is $32,000.

Lotto bettor wins P106-M lotto prize

MANILA, Philippines - A 49-year-old male government employee from Gen. Santos City won the P106-million jackpot in the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) online lottery draw last Sunday after attending Mass and praying at a church in his hometown to win the jackpot.

The winner went last Monday afternoon to the PCSO at the Philippine International Convention Center (PICC) in Pasay City to claim the P106,844,122.80 jackpot of the 6/49 Super Lotto draw last Sunday.

PCSO general manager Jose Ferdinand Rojas II said the winner prayed at a Gen. Santos City church to win the Super Lotto draw last Sunday and he also promised that he would donate a substantial amount to the church if his prayers were granted.

Rojas said the lucky player bought the ticket with winning combination 39-42-38-7-10-12 at a shopping mall in General Santos City.

He purchased only one ticket worth P20 and used the lucky pick system wherein the computer chooses the number combination.

Lawyer Larry Patiag, chief of the PCSO internal audit department, said the winner was nervous when he claimed his prize.

Patiag said that before buying the lotto ticket the winner, who is a devout Catholic, attended Mass and prayed that he would win the lotto jackpot.

“The winner would give a portion of his winnings to the church, help his relatives and put the rest in a bank,” Patiag said.

He said that last Monday, a 39-year-old stage director from Pasig City claimed the P12-million jackpot for the 6/42 Regular Lotto draw last July 26 and that same day a 25-year-old laborer also claimed the P3-million jackpot for the 6/42 lotto draw last July 28.

The stage director, who is still single, got the winning combination of 6-19-28-33-1-07 with a jackpot worth P12,071.685.00 while the construction worker, who is a single parent, won the P3-million jackpot of the July 28 draw.

Patiag said the two winners spent P10 for their bets and the number combinations were picked up from birthdays and significant events in their respective families.

Both winners also intend to buy a house and lot and start their own businesses.

A baker from Bacoor, Cavite claimed last week the P34,884,613.80 jackpot of the 6/45 Megalotto draw last July 25.

This is a follow up story about a Christmas article
dated way back Dec.24 2010 titled lotto winner gives away $11.2 Million dollars (562 million Pesos).



Imagine winning the lottery.

Then imagine giving 98% of it away, I repeat giving 98% of it away.

Violet and Allen Large won $11.2 Million dollars last year in the lottery. However, instead of going on spending sprees, world trips and buying shiny cars, they decided to do exactly the opposite: they gave almost all of it away. “What you’ve never had, you don’t miss,” Allan Large said shortly after collecting their winnings. The money, they felt, was nothing but a nuisance. And what was more, Violet was suffering from cancer — and the Larges knew that no amount of money could give her back her health. So they went about disposing of their money in the most beneficial ways they could think of. They gave the money away to hospitals, churches, family members, cemeteries, fire departments, the VON, the Red Cross, the War Amps and many other organizations. Their generosity was unparalleled.

They kept a mere 2% — approximately $200,000- – to keep their house running, particularly since Violet was undergoing treatment for ovarian cancer. They stayed living in their same farmhouse, driving their same truck, and living the same lives they’d been living for decades. Last month, the Larges were named Individual Philanthropists of the Year by the Maritime Philanthropy Awards. The awards committee said the couple’s generosity “embodied and encouraged the idea of pure philanthropy.”

Violet died last weekend of ovarian cancer at the age of 79. She leaves behind a truly moving legacy of charity. She was buried yesterday by her family and friends, and her life celebrated as one rich not with money, but with generosity and love.

Fake lotto winner

What if I tell you now ...

Starting today all your expenses from your food to all your utilities and everything you need in your life is now fully paid up to December 31, 2011.

How would you feel about it?

Why I am telling you this ? because I found a story about a fake lotto winner who tells the entire store(example store SM megamall) that she won a $1.5 million (P70 million)in lottery prize and wanted to spend $500(P25,000.00) on everyone in the store.



Fake lotto winner causes riot at Burlington Coat Factory

Imagine you're minding your own business looking for a new coat at Burlington Coat Factory on an idle Tuesday afternoon when a stretch Hummer Limo rolls up and out jumps Linda Brown, 45, who tells the entire store that she won a $1.5 million lottery prize and wanted to spend $500 on everyone in the store.

Sounds a little too good to be true doesn't it? After all, stories like this only happen in the movies, but lo and behold, Brown began paying for purchase after purchase using her debit card while the store became crowded with friends and family who had been alerted to the once-in-a-lifetime deal. The Columbus Dispatch reports that by 2 p.m. word had spread to so many shoppers that the lines wove through the entire store!



But, and here's why you're reading this here instead of watching a Hallmark movie, after several thousands of dollars in charges Brown's debit card could take no more and she announced that she would go to the bank for more cash to continue the charity. And so she retreated to her stretch Hummer and left, never to be seen at Burlington Coat Factory again.

You see. Linda Brown didn't win the lottery; she wasn't even going to the bank. Brown's wallet was as empty as the shelves back at Burlington Coat Factory, which didn't sit too well with her driver who, upset over being stiffed the $900 rental fee, turned her into the police.

But, the story doesn't end here. Back at the Burlington Coat Factory in Columbus, Ohio police and store managers had to inform a large crowd of shoppers that their Good Samaritan coupon had expired. To say the least, those assembled for $500 worth of coats and clothing, desperately needed as winter showed its face in Ohio today, were not happy with that news.

Despite the police presence the store became unruly with reactions ranging from simply leaving un-purchased goods where they had been standing in line, forming a giant centipede of coats, to angry individuals who took to throwing what they couldn't get for free!

According to the Associated Press, 24 police officers were called in to respond to the crowd, including Detective Steven Nace described the scene to the AP, saying, "It looks like [Hurricane] Katrina went through the store."

After the police spoke to Linda Brown they began to realize that something wasn't right, especially after they found out about her past police issues which included several warrants. Brown's daughter blames her mother's behavior on lack of medication which keeps these "extravagant" actions in check. Brown is currently in jail awaiting a mental evaluation and will likely face charges for inciting a riot.

Lotto forecasting Philippine style

Radio announcer nabbed for swindling, forecasting lotto result.


MANILA, Philippines - A block timer radio commentator in Opol, Misamis Oriental was arrested for swindling.

Suspect Joseph Labaya, known on air as “Jack Pineda” in local AM station “DXCO Philradio,” was caught in an entrapment operation launched by Misamis Oriental police.

Pineda was arrested after locals complained of his fraudulent scheme called “Suertres Club.”

In the scheme, listeners who want to receive a “daily forecast” of the winning Lotto numbers via SMS were required to pay a fee of not less than one thousand pesos.

PO2 Gil Agne Jr. said that some of the people convinced by Labaya ended up selling some of their belongings just to join the club.

So far, no one from the club has won the lottery.

Asked how he comes up with the daily forecast, Labaya said: “That's what you call perseverance. We analyze the numbers, we really work on it.”

Money order receipts addressed to Labaya amounting to more than P60,000 and a notebook containing an extensive member database were recovered from the suspect's possession.

The police believe that the integrity of his chosen medium is the reason Labaya was able to conduct his fraudulent act.

Labaya's 15-minute a day broadcast on the radio only costs him a blocktime fee of
P7,000 a month.

MANILA, Philippines — Here are the latest feel-good stories coming out of the Philippine Sweepstakes Office (PCSO).

A 38-year-old company driver of Las Piñas, Metro Manila, bet the ages of his six children to win over P24-million from the Mega Lotto 6/45 jackpot last June 10.

A seaman from Zambales who snared the P12.6-million Lotto 6/42 jackpot last June 9 decides to honor his eight-month contract with a ship owner than immediately enjoy his winnings by breaching his contract.

And then there’s a retiree whose life would more likely begin at 57 after getting his hands on P15.7 million, the jackpot from Lotto 6/42 draw last May 31.

Lawyer Lauro A. Patiag, manager of the Internal Audit Department (PCSO-IAD), who usually interviews winners for their profile, said the driver who won works for an unnamed company

“They are really happy for their good fortune. The driver was particularly in a very happy mood. He said his first buy will be a house and lot because is just renting a house in Las Pinas,” said Patiag.

He said the company driver, who bets irregularly, used to have birth dates for his number combination, but replaced them a week ago with the ages of his children: 15-01-13-11-07-09.

It proved to be his lucky matched for the six-number winning set of the Mega Lotto 6/45 drawn last Friday.

Patiag said the driver placed the bet at a lotto outlet inside the South Supermarket in Muntinlupa City while on a company errand.

He added the driver told him he will put some amount for a business venture and save the rest for his children’s education.

Meanwhile, the seaman came down to Manila from Zambales last June 9 and bought his ticket before his flight on June 13 for his rendezvous with his ship, Patiag said.

The seaman stayed with a relative in Parañaque City where he placed bet combinations worth P60 in the Lotto 6/42 draw.

One of his six bets was based on ages and birth dates – 40-03-36-37-32-38, which gave him the P12.65- million bonanza.

Patiag said the seaman’s wife, who accompanied him to PCSO, asked her husband to forego his assignment because they now have the money to take it easy.

“But the seaman said he has to honor his eight months commitment with his ship or he could be in breach of contract. So, the couple will just put their winnings in the bank in the meantime,” said the PCSO official.

The third claimant is a male retiree who won the P15.7-M jackpot, also from 6/42 in the May 31 draw.

Patiag said the retiree, who has six children, placed a P10 Lucky Pick bet in Lapu-Lapu City, but only knew he won a week after when he had his ticket verified in a lotto outlet inside a mall.

Upon learning last Friday that he won in the 6/42 draw last May 31, he flew to Manila right away and claimed the jackpot, he said.

The retiree has no house and lot of his own, so that will be his first priority for his family, said Patiag. “He was really lucky: He has a single Lucky Pick bet and a very irregular bettor,” the PCSO-IAD head said.

As this developed, PCSO General Manager Jose Ferdinand M. Rojas II said the Sunday draw of Super Lotto 6/49 with the winning set of 07-03-24-28-16-01 produced two winners who will share the P43,863,584.40 windfall at stake.

He said that from June 1 to 12 alone, the PCSO has made five lotto millionaires already, including the 60-year-old Bicolano carpenter who won Grand Lotto 6/55’s P356-million prize last June 1.

“We, in the PCSO, are happy that more bettors have realized their dreams for a better life through the lotto games, while they also help the agency’s charity mission for the needy and sick people,” said Rojas.

Patiag said there should be no doubt about lotto winners because they are featured in the media. On the other hand, the PCSO-IAD manager appealed to journalists not to
release any information that may put the winners’ life at risk.

A lotto Miracle

Do you believe in miracles?

Well, I found a beautiful story on how God made a miracle happened.


Atheist Converts After Mock Prayer to Win $1m Lottery is Answered.

A self-confessed atheist has become a believer after mocking God by sarcastically praying for his mother to win the lottery. However, his joke prayer was amazingly answered as the next day his mother won $1 million on the New York Lottery Sweet Million game.


Sal Bentivegna, 28, who did not previously believe in God, had sarcastically asked his mother to “ask your God for a million dollars”.

However, his mother Gloria Bentivegna, follows the Catholic faith, and staying true to her belief refused to ask God for such a thing.

Taking his joke further, Sal then prayed out aloud saying, “God, I don’t know if you’re real or not, but if you are there, please let my mother win a million dollars.”

He added, “If Jesus wants me to believe in him, that’s what he’ll do”.

The following day his mother bought a “Lotto Tree” of unscratched instant win tickets from her Church’s charity auction. Sal was then left absolutely stunned when he found out his mother had won a million.

Realizing that the odds of his mother winning were so farfetched, Sal has now become a firm believer.

He testified, “I can’t shrug off that Jesus had a hand in it.”

“No pun intended, but it was a Godsend,” he said.

Gloria Bentivegna, reflecting on what had happened, is thankful to God for her winnings, but even more thankful for her son’s conversion. She said: “'God performed two miracles, a true miracle.”

By winning New York’s Sweet Million game, Gloria Bentivegna will now receive $50,000 every year for the next 20 years.

Homeless man wins

MANILA, Philippines — The little guys (read: poor people), ever wishful of a better life, such as three square meals a day, a warm bed under a sturdy roof, education for their children, and more, continue to reap good fortune through the on-line lotteries of the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) as another shanty dweller, 22, of Pasig City claimed Monday his P21,931,792.20 winnings from the Independence Day draw of Super Lotto 6/49.

Super Lotto's June 12 draw actually has two winners. They will share the P43,863,584.40 prize.

The other winner, who has yet to show up as of press time, bought his ticket in Cebu City, Cebu.

Heaven-sent or merely fortuitous, fact is the jackpot winner, another avid lotto aficionado, has now won his freedom from want and poverty via the PCSO, one of 6/49's 17 millionaires from January 1 to June 12, 2011.

It could be recalled the June 1 winner of Grand Lotto 6/55's P356 million, a Bicolano carpenter, also lived in a shanty in Las Piñas City with his wife and six children.

The auto-mechanic winner is married, with one child and lives with his small family in their shanty at an informal settlers' haven in Pasig City.

Now, he can afford a mansion to replace his make-shift dwelling! Predictably, his first priority out of his fortune is to buy a house and lot, a business, and for safekeeping in a bank.

More details from the Internal Audit Department (PCSO-IAD) headed by Manager Lauro A. Patiag showed that as the nation was busy celebrating the 113th Independence Day on Sunday, the auto mechanic was in Kapitolyo, Pasig City, placing a single P20 bet with birth dates for his number combination.

When he reported for work early Monday morning at the auto shop, he surreptitiously checked his bet from his boss's newspaper and saw his ticket matched the drawn combination of 07-03-24-28-16-01.

In spite of being overjoyed, he controlled his emotions and kept quiet about his luck.

2 simple bets to win a lotto Jackpot

Winning the lotto jackpot would be a dream come true for you, would it not?

Now, imagine actually winning the lotto, but you don't know it yet.

You walk into the lotto outlet to have your ticket checked. The lotto attendant takes your ticket, scans it, and discovers that it's a big winner. But he doesn't tell you that.

He just keeps the ticket and claims it himself.

Dream come true turns into a nightmare. Don't think it could happen?

Yes it could happen because I have seen many lotto bettors do it.

They just leave the lotto ticket when the attendant says its a non winning ticket.

They really believe what the attendant says.

I think you should be the one checking it, just to be sure.



A Lotto bettor’s wish is to win the lotto jackpot.

The lotto winner from Las Pinas got his wish after the 44th draw for hitting the 6/55 jackpot prize of P356,552,917.20 with a single bet worth P20

The P356,552,917.20 is the second biggest jackpot in the state-run lotto history.

The Balikbayan who won the P741,176,323.20 jackpot in November 2010 got his wish also after the 85th draw betting 5 lucky pick combinations worth P100



2 simple bets to win a lotto Jackpot.

The bettor just have to “maintain a number combination ” kind of playing style.

The P356,552,917.20 jackpot has been won by the carpenter who played the same number combination for years, and got it with only a P20 bet.

Add 1 lucky pick combination just for support because many jackpot winners have also won the jackpot by just making the machine pick the right numbers just like the Balikbayan did.


So bet only 2 combinations
1. 1 maintained number combination
2. 1 lucky pick bet for support

Why I say 2 simple bets to win a lotto jackpot?
because the game is heavily about LUCK.
