Meanwhile, 129 others won PHP24,000 each for guessing five of the six winning digits; 4,687 will get PHP800 each for four correct digits; and 62,002 will settle for PHP20 each for three correct digits.

The PCSO urges the public to patronize the games as a large portion of the revenues goes to the government’s charity programs.
