Lotto 6/45 System Plays – How to Improve your Chances of Winning

6/45 Lotto System Bets allow players to pick more than the typical 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.

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

The more numbers marked, 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, you only choose 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 combined with each of the remaining 40 digits in the bet card, creating a total of 40 combinations.

Please note that the higher the number of combinations, the higher the overall ticket cost will be. The overall ticket cost is PhP 20 multiplied by the number of combinations created.

Refer to the table below for more information on overall ticket cost for each Lotto 6/45 system bet.
