PCSO Lotto 6/42 System Bets – Learn How to Increase the Chances of Winning the Jackpot

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

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

With regard to System 5R, a player picks only five (5) numbers and—for the sixth number—pairs these off with each of the remaining thirty-seven (37) numbers, creating a total of 37 combinations.

Keep in mind that the higher the number of combinations, the higher the overall ticket cost will be. The overall price of the ticket is PhP 20 multiplied by the number of combinations produced.
