A motorcycle ride-hailing driver from Valenzuela City claimed a P19.4 million jackpot in the Lotto 6/42 draw held last 11 January 2025. The winning combination was 09-38-23-12-32-29.

The winner, who has been playing the lottery for two years, said he typically buys tickets when he has extra income from his work and now, the new millionaire plans to use his winnings to build a new house and fund his child’s education.

He claimed his winnings of P19,489,253.80 at the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) Main Office in Mandaluyong City.

Under the Tax Reform Acceleration and Inclusion (TRAIN) Law, prizes exceeding P10,000 are subject to a 20 percent tax. Winners must claim their prizes within one year from the draw date or forfeit the winnings. The PCSO assures all winners that their personal information will be kept confidential.

Lotto 6/42 draws are held every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday at 9 p.m. and are broadcast live on IBC-13, D8TV Channel, and the PCSO Games Online Hub Facebook page.
