Vietlott jackpot reaches 300 billion VND, Ho Chi Minh City people rush to hunt for big prizes

The jackpot prize (Jackpot 1) of Vietlott's Power 6/55 product has reached over VND281 billion. Thus, in just 1 to 2 draws, Vietlott's jackpot prize will reach VND300 billion or higher. The "huge" prize is attracting people in Ho Chi Minh City to buy lottery tickets.

Mr. Le Manh Quan (living on Cach Mang Thang Tam Street, District 3, Ho Chi Minh City) said that normally he only buys 2-3 series of numbers for fun. However, when the Vietlott prize reached nearly 300 billion VND, he bought more series of numbers.

“I bought 6 self-selection tickets, each with 5 series of numbers, for a total of 300,000 VND. It’s rare to get a big prize, so I invested more to hope for luck,” said Mr. Quan.

Mr. Ngo Van Sau (living on To Hien Thanh Street, District 10, Ho Chi Minh City) shared that he often buys 3-5 series of numbers, but about a week ago he bought 7-pack tickets (70,000 VND/ticket) and 8-pack tickets (280,000 VND/ticket) to increase his chances of winning the big prize.

“I used my birthday and my wife and children’s birthday to participate in the prize for fun, who knows, I might be lucky enough to win nearly 300 billion VND. My friends also played a lot this time, so everyone was talking excitedly,” said Mr. Sau.

People in Ho Chi Minh City are buying more lottery tickets in the hope of winning the “huge” prize of Vietlott this time. Many people have spent tens of millions, even hundreds of millions of dong to buy lottery tickets for luck.

A representative of Vietlott Ho Chi Minh City Branch said that in the past 2 weeks, the number of people buying Vietlott lottery tickets has increased sharply, especially tickets of the Power 6/55 product. This unit confirmed that dozens of 18-pack tickets (over 185 million VND/ticket) have been sold in the Ho Chi Minh City area.

In addition, the agents also sold a lot of 7, 8, 9… 15-pack tickets. Revenue at some points of sale doubled compared to normal days.

A combo ticket is a combination of numbers chosen by the customer. For example, a combo ticket 7 will be a combination of 7 numbers. These 7 numbers will form 7 series of numbers (each series has 6 numbers) with the value of each ticket being 70,000 VND.

The 8, 9, and 18 tickets are calculated similarly. The 18 ticket is a combination of 18 numbers, or 18,564 series of numbers (each series has 6 numbers). Thus, to own a 18 ticket, the player must spend 185,640,000 VND.

With the increase in the jackpot value of the Power 6/55 product in recent draws (from 13 - 15 billion VND/draw), in the upcoming draw 1,013 on March 26, Jackpot 1 may reach 294 - 300 billion VND. This is one of the highest prize milestones of Vietlott.

Vietlott’s biggest prize to date is the Jackpot 1 prize of the Power 6/55 product worth nearly VND304 billion. On May 5, 2018, a man in Hanoi was lucky enough to win this prize with the numbers 16 – 32 – 33 – 37 – 40 – 48.

If in the next 2 draws, Vietlott cannot find the owner of the jackpot prize, Jackpot 1 of the Power 6/55 product will most likely surpass the 304 billion VND mark and reach the highest prize ever.

In the last 4 draws of Power 6/55, there have been 4 consecutive Jackpot 2 winning tickets with prize values ​​ranging from 4.2 to 10.4 billion VND. However, Jackpot 1 worth more than 281 billion VND has not been won yet.
