Philippine Lotto 6/42 System Bets – 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.

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 bettor who marks this option would have to select seven (7) numbers. In System 8, on the other hand, 28 combinations are created because the player will have to choose a total of eight (8) numbers out of the numbers 1 to 42.

In essence, 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 5R, you only have to mark five (5) numbers instead of the regular six-number combination. The remaining unselected numbers in the playing card (37 in all) will be partnered with the 5 numbers you chose, thus creating 37 six-number combinations in all.

Keep in mind that the higher the number of combinations, the higher the overall ticket cost will be. The total ticket price is PhP 20 times the number of combinations created.

Refer to the table below for more information on total ticket cost per Philippine Lotto 6/42 system bet.
