    pero pcso has money to pay winners

    unlike pepsi

    -

    makes no difference to pcso if there's 1 winner or 433

    instead of writing 1 check with the jackpot amount they'll be writing 433 checks (jackpot amount divided by 433)

    -

    pepsi should be paying out the whole amount to every winning tansan holder

    recently napanood ko iyong dokyu niyan and na attribute sa software snafu or something like that.
    Nakakuha ako nun before! Then went to their office to claim but sobrang daming tao. There were scalpers willing to buy it for P500. Chose to sell it na lang hehe.

    So if you’re an aries, the winning numbers are your lucky numbers.

    Ano kaya nararamdaman ng nanalo ngayon? Matic syempre masaya at may 500k, pero hindi kaya sila malungkot din at the same time kasi 236M na, naging 500k pa! Sa hirap naman tamaan ung jackpot, may nakasabay ka pa at hindi 1 or 2 lang [emoji38]

    "if they didn't know before, they now know. maraming nag-a-alaga nang combination."
    kahit birth day mo... many people are born on the same date.

    sabi nga sa internet,
    "choose a more powerful password."

    any math undergrad will tell you,
    "whatever set of numbers you choose, your chances of winning are virtually the same".
    but if your combination has a pattern to it, chances are, someone else is betting on that very same pattern. meron ka nang ka-hati!

    finally,
    yesterweek's winning combination has no influence what so ever, on next week's winning combination.

    it's amazing how so many people bet significant sums of money,
    when their chances of winning are clearly in the very small minority.

    in an ancient article, it wrote that
    "you are a gambling addict, when you lock yourself in the bathroom at midnight, looking at the winning numbers, to determine once and for all, that you got the numbers ... wrong".

    sabi nga ni manuel lim,
    "quitters never win, and winners never quit."

    With the recent grand lotto result, you can see many comments on fb saying congratulations PCSO staff and implying that it is rigged.

    But seriously Doc is this the 1st time in Philippine or even world grand lotto history wherein jackpot prize was shared by 400+ pax? I understand probably 2 winners share the jackpot prize but 433 pax is just insane.

    Hindi ako masyado nagtataka na maraming winners sa 9 18 27 36 45 54, ang pinagtataka ko yung odds na these are the winning numbers.

    if you look at the winning combination kasi, the pattern is obvious.
    9-18-27-36-45-54.
    multiples of 9.
    as mentioned previously,
    some people will bet on certain combinations than on random picks.
    "ina-alagaan" nila.

    i believe,
    that if one looks for a combination that has logic, there are many people who are betting on that combo.
    kung ayaw mong may ka-hati sa grand prize, bet on random numbers.

    by the same token,
    the chances on any other combination coming out, no matter what, are equally infinitesimal...
    one thing we are sure of... may combination na lalabas as winner.

    sabi nga ng math teacher namin,
    "the only reason why you don't believe it, is because you are not in favor of the combination."

    so those who won are all pcso employees?

    planado 433 of them bet on the same combination and sinigurado nila yan ang lalabas sa bola

    Yeah kinda perplexed that a winning combo hada a pattern of multiples of a number. I think the odds of that happening are significantly higher than random numbers right? More surprised that people actually bet on those numbers, & actually won!
