PCSO Lotto 6/42 System Bets – How to Improve your Chances of Winning the Jackpot

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 creates multiple combinations of your chosen numbers.

If you want to try system plays, 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 marks this option would have to mark seven (7) numbers. In System 8, on the other hand, 28 combinations are generated because the bettor will need to choose a total of eight (8) numbers out of the numbers 1 to 42.

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

In System 5R, you only select 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 card, producing a total of 37 six-number combinations.

Please remember that the higher the number of combinations, the higher the overall bet cost will be. The overall cost of the ticket is PhP 20 times the number of combinations produced.
