Original Toronto Star caption: Big winners: The 21 winners of Lottario's biggest jackpot let out a collective cheer as they pick up a cheque for $2;682;777 at the Lottario office in Toronto yesterday. Each man gets $127;751 and credits the win to a system worked out by one of their number; Antonio Columbo; who says he reduced the 3 million possible combinations of the six winning numbers to 640. But they're not stopping now; they plan to try the system on Lotto 6/49 next.
