MANILA, Philippines — The jackpot in the 6/58 Ultra Lotto is estimated to soar to P253.5 million for tonight’s draw.

Melquiades Robles, general manager of the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office and vice chairman of the board, said no bettor guessed the winning combination 18-37-17-40-34-57, which had a jackpot of P244,874,068.

Seven bettors almost hit the jackpot after getting five digits of the winning combination. They will receive P120,000 each.

The Tax Reform for Acceleration and Inclusion Law imposes a 20 percent tax on lotto winnings higher than P10,000.
