PCSO Lotto 6/42 System Plays – Learn 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.

In case you want to play 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.

A total of seven (7) combinations are produced 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 bettor will have to pick a total of eight (8) numbers out of the numbers 1 to 42.

The more numbers chosen, the higher the number of combinations produced. Same rule applies in System 9, System 10, System 11 and in System 12.

With System 5-Roll, you only choose five (5) numbers and if your 5 numbers match the winning combination, you automatically win the jackpot. This is because in System 5-Roll, the 5 numbers you have selected are automatically partnered with each of the remaining 37 digits in the bet slip, producing a total of 37 six-number combinations.

Please note that your overall 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 price shall be PhP 20 multiplied by the number of combinations produced.

The following table reflects the number of combination as well as the corresponding ticket cost per system bet.
