In contrast, 12 people shared the Group 2 prize, with each receiving a comparatively meagre S$115,990.
Both TOTO winners bought tickets online
According to Singapore Pools, both of the winners purchased their tickets online through the Singapore Pools account betting service.
One of the tickets was a QuickPick System 7 Entry, which has a minimum bet of S$7.
The other ticket was QuickPick Ordinary Entry, which has a minimum bet of S$1.
3 previous draws failed to produce Group 1 winner
Singapore Pools declared the 9 Nov draw a cascade draw after three consecutive draws — on 29 Oct, 2 Nov, and 5 Nov — failed to produce a Group 1 winner.
The last TOTO draw with a Group 1 winner was on 26 Oct, when two punters took home S$620,762 each.
In such a situation, the operator typically calls a cascade draw, meaning it will split the jackpot between the Group 2 winners if no Group 1 winner emerges.
If there are no Group 2 winners, the operator will split the prize among the Group 3 winners, and so on.
Previous cascade draw was on 13 July
The latest cascade draw was only the fourth this year, with the previous one on 13 July.
Its jackpot exceeded S$12.8 million, with just two lucky Group 1 winners splitting the prize.
Meanwhile, on the cascade draw on 4 May, one Group 1 punter took home the full sum of S$12,813,283.
Besides the cascade draws this year, the TOTO Hong Bao Draw also had a jackpot of more than S$10 million. Its eventual jackpot, which swelled to S$12 million, was shared by three winning tickets.
The next TOTO draw will be on Thursday (12 July), for an estimated jackpot of S$1 million.
