Instant Milyonaryo! Cebu Bettor Bags P100-Million Ultra Lotto Jackpot
Isang maswerteng bettor from Cebu City just became an instant multi-millionaire after hitting the P100.33-million Ultra Lotto 6/58 jackpot on Tuesday night, March 17, 2026. That's a life-changing amount of money from a single lucky ticket.
The Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) confirmed that the lone winner correctly guessed the winning combination: 29-52-49-55-25-09. The winning ticket was purchased from a lotto outlet in Cebu City, though the identity of the winner remains unknown for now.
The winner has exactly one year to claim the P100,331,631.91 prize at the PCSO main office in Mandaluyong City. After that? Forfeited na. Also worth noting: winnings over P10,000 are subject to a 20% tax, so the actual take-home will be around P80 million — still not a bad haul, 'di ba?
Five other lucky bettors matched five numbers and won P300,000 each, while 370 bettors hit four numbers for P3,783.78 apiece. Another 8,862 people matched three numbers and pocketed P100 each. Meanwhile, the SuperLotto 6/49 (P117.8M jackpot) and Lotto 6/42 (P15.6M jackpot) both went unclaimed that night.
Ultra Lotto 6/58 draws are held every Tuesday, Friday, and Sunday. So kung naniniwala ka sa swerte, baka next time ikaw na! The PCSO reminded the public that lotto revenue funds government charity programs nationwide. 🍀
