The TOTO jackpot snowballed after three consecutive draws on 10 Oct, 14 Oct and 17 Oct failed to produce a Group 1 winner.

The last draw that had a Group 1 winner was on 7 Oct, when one punter took home S$3,073,546.
So far, there was one Group 2 winner on 10 Oct, two on 14 Oct and four on 17 Oct — but no Group 1 winner.
This caused the Group 1 prize to increase from S$1.2 million on 10 Oct to S$2.9 million on 14 Oct, and then S$5.6 million on 17 Oct.
Accordingly, the draw on 21 Oct will be a cascade draw, which is typically called in such a situation.
That means the jackpot will be split between the Group 2 winners if no Group 1 winner emerges.
If there are no Group 2 winners, the prize will be split among the Group 3 winners, and so on.
Cascade draws are typically pushed back to 9.30pm from the usual draw timing of 6.30pm, according to Singapore Pools.
Sales would also close later at 9pm.
The previous time the jackpot snowballed to S$10 million was on 9 May, also after three consecutive weeks with no Group 1 winner.
After the dust settled, one lucky winner took home a whopping S$13,123,509 all for themselves.
The winning System 7 ticket was purchased via Singapore Pools’ Account Betting Service.
