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.
