National Lotto 6/42 System Plays – Learn How to Increase your Chances of Winning
You can improve your chances of winning the jackpot through 6/42 Lotto System Bets. This advanced option allows you to pick more than the usual six (6) numbers and generates numerous combinations of your chosen numbers.
The available system bets in 6/42 Lotto are System 5-Roll (System 5R), System 7, System 8, System 9, System 10, System 11 and System 12.
A total of seven (7) combinations are generated in System 7 because a player who selects this option would need to select seven (7) numbers. In System 8, on the other hand, 28 combinations are generated because the player will need to select a total of eight (8) numbers out of the numbers 1 to 42.

Please remember that the higher the number of combinations, the higher the total ticket cost will be. The total ticket cost is PhP 20 multiplied by the number of combinations created.
