PCSO Lotto 6/42 System Bets – Learn How to Improve the Odds of Winning the Jackpot

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

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

A total of seven (7) combinations are produced in System 7 because a player who marks this option would need to choose seven (7) numbers. In System 8, on the other hand, 28 combinations are generated because the bettor will need to mark a total of eight (8) numbers out of the numbers 1 to 42.

To sum it up, more and more number combinations are generated as the picked numbers increase. This same rule applies to the rest of the remaining system plays.

In the case of System 5-Roll, the player will only have to mark five (5) numbers. The remaining (unmarked) 37 numbers will be paired with the 5 selected numbers. This creates a total of 37 combinations.

Please remember that your total ticket cost will be much higher in system bets due to the higher number of combinations you will bet on. The overall price of the ticket shall be PhP 20 times the number of combinations produced.
