PCSO Lotto 6/42 System Plays – How to Increase the Odds of Winning

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

These are the choices available if you want to play system bets- System 7, System 8, System 9, System 10, System 11, System 12 and System 5-Roll (System 5R).

In System 7, a player picks seven (7) numbers which generates 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 generated as the marked numbers increase. This same rule applies to the rest of the remaining system bets.

With regard to System 5-Roll, the bettor will only have to choose five (5) numbers. The remaining (unselected) 37 numbers will be paired with the 5 marked numbers. This creates a total of 37 combinations.

Please note that your total ticket cost will be much higher in system plays due to the higher number of combinations you will place your bet on. The overall ticket cost shall be PhP 20 times the number of combinations created.

Refer to the table below for more information on overall ticket cost for every PCSO Lotto 6/42 system bet.
