Lotto 6/42 System Plays – Ways to Improve the Odds of Winning

6/42 Lotto System Bets allow players to pick more than the typical six (6) numbers per draw, thereby increasing their chances of winning the jackpot.

In case you want to try system bets, these are the options you can choose from- System 5-Roll (System 5R), System 7, System 8, System 9, System 10, System 11 and System 12.

In System 7, a bettor chooses seven (7) numbers which produces a total of seven (7) combinations. With System 8, on the other hand, the bettor selects a total of eight (8) numbers generating a total of 28 combinations.

In essence, more and more number combinations are created as the picked numbers increase. This same rule applies to the rest of the remaining system plays.

With System 5R, you only mark five (5) numbers and if your 5 numbers match the winning combination, you automatically win the jackpot. This is because in System 5R, the 5 numbers you have chosen are automatically matched with each of the remaining 37 digits in the bet card, generating a total of 37 combinations.

Remember that the higher the number of combinations, the higher the total ticket cost will be. The total ticket price is PhP 20 times the number of combinations produced.
