News Official statement Outcome reported
  • No one correctly predicted the outcomes of all 14 matches in the 39th round of the Soccer Toto 'Win-Draw-Loss' pool.
  • As a result, the jackpot prize of over 1 billion won has been carried over to the next round.
  • The pool involved 14 matches from the domestic professional football league and Major League Soccer (MLS).

The Soccer Toto 'Win-Draw-Loss' pool for its 39th round has seen its substantial jackpot prize of over 1 billion won (approximately $750,000 USD) carried over to the next drawing, as no participant managed to correctly predict the results of all 14 featured matches. This marks a significant rollover, increasing the potential winnings for the subsequent round.

The pool, managed by the Sports Toto operator, Korea Sports Leisure Co., Ltd., under the Seoul Olympic Sports Promotion Foundation, featured a slate of 14 games. These included matches from South Korea's professional football league and the American Major League Soccer (MLS). The absence of a top-tier winner means the accumulated prize money will roll over, creating a larger prize pool for the next round of betting.

This outcome highlights the unpredictable nature of football and the challenge of accurately forecasting game results across different leagues. The rollover is expected to generate increased interest and participation in the upcoming Soccer Toto draw as bettors aim to claim the substantial accumulated jackpot.
