Mega Lotto System Plays – How to Improve your Odds of Winning

6/45 Lotto System Bets allow players to pick more than the usual six (6) numbers per draw, thereby increasing their chances of winning the jackpot.

These are the choices available in case you want to play system bets- System 7, System 8, System 9, System 10, System 11, System 12 and System 5-Roll (System 5R).

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

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

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

Note that your overall ticket cost will be much higher in system bets because of the higher number of combinations you will bet on. The overall ticket cost shall be PhP 20 times the number of combinations generated.

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