LUCKY LOTTERY WINNERS
What are the odds that 433 people hit the lottery?
That’s the question Filipinos are asking after $4 million (R72m) had to be split among hundreds of players in the country.
In a lottery, people pay to try to pick the correct combination of numbers to win sums of money.
In the recent draw, the players had all picked the same winning combination of six numbers – 9, 18, 27, 36, 45, 54 – which are also multiples of 9. Although some say it was pure luck, investigations are now underway to ensure there was no foul play.
