$12.8m Toto jackpot won by single ticket bought online, Singapore News
The winning ticket was bought through the Singapore Pools account betting service under the QuickPick Ordinary Entry and was the only one with the winning number combination.
The winning numbers were 7, 19, 20, 21, 22, 29, and the additional number was 37.
The Toto draw yielded no Group 1 winners in the previous three draws, causing the jackpot to snowball from around $1.2 million on July 21, to $2.9 million on July 24 and $5.8 million on July 28 draw.
A cascade draw is triggered when there are no Group 1 winners for three consecutive draws. The jackpot can only snowball up to the fourth draw under Toto rules.
There were 20 Group 2 winners who shared the prize of $73,408.
Data from Singapore Pools, which tracks all lottery draws since Oct 9, 2014, showed that the Group 1 prize on Thursday was the third highest single winning share, just behind two other prizes that exceeded $13 million.
Thursday's draw is the eighth Toto draw of 2025 that had a jackpot of over $10 million, with the most recent one being on July 17, where the prize of $12.8 million was split among 12 Group 2 tickets.
The next Toto draw will happen on Monday (Aug 4), with a jackpot of around $1 million up for grabs.

No plans to 'fully liberalise' cross-border ride-hail services: LTA, Singapore News
There are no plans to fully liberalise ride-hailing services between Singapore and Johor Bahru, the Land Transport Authority (LTA) has said on Sunday (Aug 3). This comes after Johor chief minister Onn Hafiz Ghazi said in a Facebook post that the proposal for a cross-border e-hailing service was discussed during his meeting with Acting Transport Minister Jeffrey Siow on Aug 1. Onn Hafiz said that such a service would "offer more flexible mobility options" and reduce congestion on major routes as well as opening revenue opportunities for drivers. LTA, however, said in a statement on Sunday, that no decision was made on whether to allow cross-border e-hailing services to ferry passengers. "While we are open to ideas to improve the cross-border commuting experience, we would like to clarify that LTA has no plan to fully liberalise cross-border point-to-point transport via ride-hail services," it added. LTA, instead, said that it is exploring ways to enhance its existing cross-border taxi scheme, which allows a licensed fleet of up to 200 taxis from each side to ferry passengers between Singapore and Johor Bahru. These licensed taxis are permitted to pick up and drop off passengers only at a single designated point in the other's country - Larkin Sentral in Johor Bahru for Singapore taxis and Ban San Street Terminal in Singapore for Malaysian taxis. LTA noted that the existing quota of the cross-border taxi scheme is not fully utilised. "We are also considering increasing the number of boarding and alighting points in each other's country, and to use ride-hailing apps to book cross-border trips on licensed taxis," it said. LTA said that in any adjustment to the cross-border point-to-point transport regime, its key priorities are to better meet commuter demand while safeguarding the interests of Singapore's taxi and private hire drivers. "As cross-border taxi scheme is a reciprocal arrangement, any change will require agreement from both governments," it added. [[nid:720818]] chingshijie@

Toto bettor becomes multimillionaire overnight as he wins record-breaking S$12.38 million jackpot
Photo: WM Commons SINGAPORE: A lone punter has scooped a staggering S$12.83 million in the final Toto draw of July, setting a new record for the largest-ever single ticket win in the game's history. The winning numbers in Toto Draw 4035, held at 9:30 p.m. on Thursday, July 31, were 7, 19, 20, 21, 22, 29, with 37 as the additional number. Interestingly, the draw featured four consecutive numbers, 19, 20, 21, and 22. Such a sequence is believed to be a first in the history of Singapore Pools' Group 1 prize wins. According to Singapore Pools' official website, the life-changing prize was claimed through a QuickPick Ordinary Entry placed via an online betting account, making the unnamed winner the sole recipient of the top prize after three consecutive draws with no Group 1 winner. The draw had seen its jackpot swell past the S$10 million mark due to the rollover. This latest win surpasses the previous single-ticket record set on June 19, when a lone winner walked away with S$12.32 million. This previous record stood for just over six weeks. While all eyes were on the record-breaking Group 1 prize, the draw also brought good fortune to 20 other winners, each bagging S$73,408 from the Group 2 prize tier. Singapore Pools urges members of the public to place bets responsibly. () => { const trigger = if ('IntersectionObserver' in window && trigger) { const observer = new IntersectionObserver((entries, observer) => { => { if ( { lazyLoader(); // You should define lazyLoader() elsewhere or inline here // Run once } }); }, { rootMargin: '800px', threshold: 0.1 }); } else { // Fallback setTimeout(lazyLoader, 3000); } });
