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

You can increase 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 produces 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 generated in System 7 because a player who selects this option would have to pick 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.

In short, more and more number combinations are created as the marked numbers increase. This same rule applies to the rest of the remaining system bets.

With System 5-Roll, the bettor chooses five (5) numbers instead of six. These 5 numbers are automatically matched with the remaining thirty-seven (37) numbers, producing 37 six-number combinations in total.

Keep in mind that your total ticket cost will be much higher in system bets due to the higher number of combinations you will bet on. The total price of the ticket shall be PhP 20 multiplied by the number of combinations generated.

The following table shows the number of combination as well as the corresponding ticket cost for every system bet.
