PCSO Lotto Results for October 31, 2026: The Halloween Night Draw
The October 31 draw night is always one of the busiest on the PCSO calendar. Filipinos mark the long weekend with family reunions and cemetery visits, and lotto outlets in the provinces see a steady stream of ticket buyers squeezing in a bet before the 9:00 PM cutoff. This year the stakes were higher than usual because the 6/55 Grand Lotto had been rolling over for several weeks and carried a jackpot of P319,543,684.84.
The full results are laid out in the table above, and the key combinations are worth repeating for anyone who played on the day: the 6/55 Grand Lotto drew 42-30-21-17-20-01, the 6/42 Lotto drew 16-40-07-18-41-03, and the 6D Lotto 9:00 PM draw came out as 9-5-3-8-8-5. Each one is a separate game with its own prize pool and its own set of players, so treat them as three distinct results rather than one combined draw.
What stands out on this particular night is the 6/42 Lotto. The jackpot sat at exactly P10,000,000.00, which is the game's minimum guaranteed prize. That tells you no one had hit the 6/42 in the preceding draws and the pool had reset to its floor figure. For regular 6/42 players, that is a signal worth noting: the pot is as low as it gets, which means a fresh cycle has just begun.

Breaking Down the 6/55 Grand Lotto Combination
A P319.5 million jackpot is the kind of figure that pulls in players who have not bought a ticket in months. When the Grand Lotto gets that heavy, the volume of bets climbs sharply in the final 48 hours, and the odds per ticket stay exactly the same no matter how many people join. The 6/55 has a fixed probability of 1 in 28,989,675 for a single ticket, so the size of the pot changes the payout, never the difficulty.
Look at the drawn set: 42-30-21-17-20-01. There are two consecutive pairs sitting in this combination, 20 and 21, plus 30 and 42 in the upper range. The spread is fairly even across the board, with one number in the low teens and the rest distributed from 17 to 42. The sum of the six numbers is 131, which sits comfortably within the mid-range band that shows up most often in lottery draws.
Players who rely on pattern-based selection will notice that no number above 45 came out. The 46 to 55 band, which many bettors load up on because those numbers feel "due" after a streak of mid-range draws, produced nothing on Halloween night. That is the nature of a random draw, but it is the sort of detail that shapes how the next batch of tickets gets filled and why the following week's draws often look completely different in their number distribution.
The Grand Lotto jackpot did not have a winner recorded for this draw, so the prize pool carries forward to the next scheduled draw.
6/42 Lotto and 6D Lotto: Reading the Smaller Draws
The 6/42 Lotto's 16-40-07-18-41-03 is an interesting set from a distribution standpoint. It is heavy at both ends, with 03 and 07 in the single digits and 40 and 41 at the top, and only 16 and 18 bridging the middle. The pair 40 and 41 is a back-to-back combination that many players avoid because it looks too neat, which is precisely why it appears in random draws as often as any other pair. With the jackpot sitting at the P10 million floor, a hit here would be split among however many winners there are, and the fixed prize structure below the top tier still pays out on matching five, four, and three numbers.
The 6D Lotto is a different animal entirely. The 9-5-3-8-8-5 result is drawn from six separate digits, and the repeated 8 and repeated 5 mean that anyone who played a ticket with distinct digits only was eliminated at two positions. The 6D game runs three draws a day, at 2:00 PM, 5:00 PM, and 9:00 PM, and the 9:00 PM draw is the one that draws the largest crowd because it lines up with the evening lotto broadcasts. The jackpot for that draw stood at P4,493,951.00, a figure that builds when consecutive draws go without a winner matching all six digits in exact order.
For regulars, the practical takeaway is to check your 6D tickets against the exact order, not just the digits. A ticket with 5-8-8-3-5-9 contains the same digits but wins nothing. The 6D is unforgiving that way, and it is the game where new players most often misread their own tickets.
What the Halloween Draws Mean for Players Heading Into November
With the Grand Lotto pool carrying forward, the next scheduled draw becomes the immediate focus. A jackpot above P300 million typically triggers a spike in outlet traffic, and the provinces outside Metro Manila see the largest proportional increase. If you plan to play the next 6/55, buy your ticket earlier in the day rather than in the final hour. Queues at accredited outlets and the PCSO online portal both thicken after 7:00 PM, and a missed cutoff means a missed draw regardless of what you had picked.
For the 6/42, the reset to P10 million signals a fresh roll-over cycle. Historically, games in this position tend to run several draws before a winner appears, which gives players a genuine reason to play a consistent line rather than chasing a specific combination every week. Pick your set, stick with it, and let the pool build.
One reminder on the operational side: PCSO tickets are valid for one year from the draw date. Winners of prizes above P10,000 must claim at a PCSO branch office or the main office on United Nations Avenue in Manila, while prizes of P10,000 and below can be claimed at any authorized lotto outlet. Bring two valid IDs and sign the back of your ticket the moment you confirm it matches the winning combination shown in the table above.
How We Track Results and Prize Pools on TadhanaTaya
Every draw we publish follows the same routine. Results are compiled from the PCSO draw broadcasts and cross-checked against the official winning number announcements, then formatted so you can verify your ticket in seconds. Jackpot figures reflect the actual prize pool for the draw date shown, not an estimate, and the 6D results list all three daily draws so you can match the exact time slot you played.
Our prize tables also list the fixed payouts for the lower tiers, which is where most winners actually land. For the 6/55, matching five numbers pays a fixed amount that varies with the number of winners in that tier, while matching four and three numbers return smaller fixed prizes. The 6/42 works the same way. Knowing these tiers matters when you are deciding how much to stake: a three-number match on the 6/42 returns a modest amount, so the value of a ticket depends on the jackpot position rather than the game itself.
Bookmark this page for the next set of draws and check back after the 9:00 PM broadcast for same-night results. If a winner is recorded on a major prize, we update the winning outlets and the location once the PCSO releases the information.
