Lotto 6/42 System Bets – How to Increase the Odds of Winning

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.

The available system bets in 6/42 Lotto are System 5-Roll (System 5R), System 7, System 8, System 9, System 10, System 11 and System 12.

With System 7, a player marks seven (7) numbers which produces a total of seven (7) combinations. In System 8, the bettor selects eight (8) numbers, generating a total of 28 combinations.

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

With regard to System 5-Roll, a player selects only five (5) numbers and—for the sixth number—pairs these off with each of the remaining thirty-seven (37) numbers, 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 total ticket price is PhP 20 times the number of combinations generated.

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