6/55 Grandlotto System Plays – Ways to Improve your Odds of Winning the Jackpot

6/55 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 plays, 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.

In System 7, a player chooses seven (7) numbers which generates a total of seven (7) combinations. With System 8, on the other hand, the bettor selects a total of eight (8) numbers producing a total of 28 combinations.

The total number of combinations increases as the marked numbers increase. The same rule applies for System 9, System 10, System 11 and System 12.

In System 5R, the bettor will only have to mark five (5) numbers. The remaining (unmarked) 50 numbers will be paired with the 5 picked numbers. This produces a total of 50 six-number combinations.

Please note that your overall ticket cost will be much higher in system bets due to the higher number of combinations you will bet on. The overall ticket cost shall be PhP 20 multiplied by the number of combinations produced.

Refer to the table below for more information on overall ticket cost per Grandlotto 6/55 system play.

How many combinations are there in System 5R for 6/55 Grand Lotto?

To complete the combination, the computer automatically pairs each of the remaining 50 “unmarked” numbers in the play card to the five numbers you already picked.

System 5R costs Php 1,000 (Php 20 x 50).

To play System 5-Roll, simply select your preferred 5-number combination and then mark 5R in the SYS section of the 6/55 Lotto bet slip.
