TOTO Jackpot Snowballs To S$13M On 18 Sep After Last 3 Draws Had No Winner
As Singaporeans look forward to celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival, many were hoping to mark the occasion with a windfall.
They formed long queues over the past few days hoping to become an instant millionaire in the TOTO draw on Monday (18 Sep).
What made it more attractive was that the jackpot had snowballed to an estimated S$10 million.
After the dust settled, four lucky punters emerged as the winners this time round, each walking away with a cool sum of more than S$3.2 million.
Last 3 draws yielded no jackpot winner
Ahead of the draw on Monday (18 Sep), anticipation had been building as the last three draws yielded no Group 1 prize winner.
It reached fever pitch after the most recent draw last Thursday (14 Sep), when no one had a winning ticket for the S$5,549,240 jackpot.
That meant that Monday’s jackpot would swell to an estimated S$10 million — a sum that would be enough for many to retire on.
