Additional PCSO Guidelines to be Followed when Playing Lotto 6/45

Amidst this pandemic, PCSO imposed the following rules in all lotto outlets nationwide.

  1. Always wear your face mask. Bettors with no face mask will not be permitted to buy 6/45 Lotto tickets.
  2. Observe physical distancing at all times while in the outlet.
  3. Bring your own ball pen to reduce the risk of getting infected with the virus.
  4. Put the play slips and money in the tray provided by the outlet to eliminate physical contact.
  5. Use alcohols or disinfectants before you leave the lotto outlet.
  6. Put away your used bet card and old tickets into the garbage can.

6/45 Megalotto System Plays – Ways to Improve your Odds of Winning the Jackpot

You can improve your chances of winning the jackpot through 6/45 Lotto System Bets. This advanced option allows you to pick more than the usual six (6) numbers and creates numerous combinations of your chosen numbers.

The available system bets in 6/45 Lotto are 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 bettor who selects this option would need to select seven (7) numbers. In System 8, on the other hand, 28 combinations are created because the bettor will need to choose a total of eight (8) numbers out of the numbers 1 to 45.

To sum up, more and more number combinations are created as the picked numbers increase. This same rule applies to the rest of the remaining system plays.

With System 5R, the bettor will only need to mark five (5) numbers. The remaining (unmarked) 40 numbers will be combined with the 5 selected numbers. This produces a total of 40 combinations.

Please note that the higher the number of combinations, the higher the total bet cost will be. The overall price of the ticket is PhP 20 times the number of combinations created.

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