The 2019 Toto Hong Bao Draw jackpot has snowballed to S$13.6 million as there was no winner for the Group 1 prize on Monday, Feb. 18.
That explains the queues forming at various Singapore Pools outlets if you are wondering.
Lucky outlets
An online publication called Kontinentalist mapped out the data from the Singapore Pools website that collated the winning frequencies from October 2014 onwards.
The map shows the distribution of jackpot and Group 2 winnings across all Singapore Pools outlets.
The darker the circle, the more occurrence of jackpot winnings while the size of the circle represents the total number of jackpot and Group 2 winnings.

From the map, it appears that there are more Group 1 and Group 2 winners from the east of Singapore than from the west.
Top 5 outlets
While the odds of winning is generally one in several million, some outlets do produce more winners than others.
Which, if you have studied probability, coheres with random distribution and there is a need to factor in the total number of punters and the size of their bets.
Singapore Pools online betting service produced the most number of winners -- due to its increase in usage over the last few years.
