The Jackpot Rises: A $10.7 Million Tale of Luck
On Monday, January 10, two fortunate bettors walked away from a $10,713,876 Toto draw like it was a Saturday afternoon picnic, each pocketing a staggering $5,356,938.
One Gambler’s $1 Gamble Turns Golden
Even more cinematic is the story of a single player who dared a minimal $1 bet and snagged the entire windfall.
Numbers That Made the Crowd Go Wild
The winning combination turned the bucket: 8, 11, 17, 21, 30, 44, with a bonus 48 to seal the deal.
Where the Good Fortune Unfolded
- At the FairPrice supermarket in Tampines Mall, a ticket was bought via the QuickPick System 7 – a quick sweet‑and‑ready play.
- At Orchard Plaza, the other ticket emerged as an Ordinary Entry, costing just $1 to hit the jackpot.
Orchard Plaza’s Jackpot Record
As reported by Shin Min Daily News, this marks the second grand prize win in eight years for the Orchard Plaza retailer.
Tampines Mall’s Proven Prosperity
Meanwhile, the Tampines Mall outlet has already released 11 Group 1 winning tickets, solidifying its reputation as the “huat” (prosperous) spot for lucky buyers.

It’s a Toto Tumble – Prize Money Piles up, 44 Wins!
Friday’s draw left the $5 million pot empty, so the Group 1 jackpot kept rolling like an unstoppable snowball.
Group 2: 14 Winners, $85,925 Each
Monday’s game turned out to be a hit. Fourteen lucky players split the pot, each pocketing a tidy $85,925.
Where the Winners Got Their Tickets
- Shin Min reports that the winners were buying from the hottest betting hot spots: Tong Aik Huat (Blk 685 Hougang St 61) and the Singapore Pools outlet (Blk 101 Yishun Ave 5).
Numbers that Strangely Spark Luck
While the single digit “4” is traditionally a no‑no in Chinese culture, it seems the double “44” has been a real lucky charm in Toto.
- “44” has trended 101 times, the second most frequent after “40”, which has shown up 113 times.
- The least used number is “17”, recorded only 87 times.
Heads up! The next big Toto squeeze is the $5 million reunion draw on January 21. We’re hoping the lottery gods will keep favoring the fortunes of everyone chasing the jackpot.
