Buying lottery tickets using a system play allows players to cover more combinations. For example, in Tattslotto’s System 9 entry, you pick 9 numbers instead of the usual 6 so that all the possible 6-number combinations from those 9 numbers are entered into the draw.
System play can be simple to implement yet very effective, as it strategically traps the winning numbers from a set of numbers. Therefore, it’s important to understand the balance between potential reward and the associated risk. The cost adds up quickly due to the increased number of combinations. Remember that even with a system, winning the jackpot is not guaranteed. That’s how a game of chance works.
Let me share a letter I received from someone.

A Letter from a Tattslotto System Player
Hi Edvin,
I’m in Australia and have been playing lotto 6 Numbers & 2 Supps drawn out of 45 Numbers. I’ve been playing System 9 every Saturday. I’ve been playing up to 3 x each week since 2015. I’ve had 4 straight and 3 straight numbers a few times but can’t manage to crack 5, 5 + 1 Supp or 6 straight Numbers! I don’t want to give up after almost 7 years…
System Play is a Lottery Wheel
System play such as “System 9” in the Tattslotto game is a typical example of a covering strategy, aka lottery wheel.
84 different 6-number combinations can be chosen from a set of 9 numbers.1 Playing with all these 84 combinations will give you an 84/8,145,060 chance of winning or 1 in 96,965.
84/8,145,060 = 1/96,965
Of course, the odds are better than having one shot in 8 million combinations. The only drawback is that this covering strategy is very expensive.
Maintaining a Balanced View of Tattslotto’s System Play
Even with a system entry, the odds of hitting 5 or 6 numbers are very low. As always, I encourage lotto players to set realistic expectations, spending only the money they are comfortable losing as the expected value of the lottery is always negative. Participating in a lotto game is just entertainment, so have fun while playing.
After nearly seven years of playing without hitting the jackpot, I feel your frustrations. Consider focusing on the same list of combinations. To minimize your risk, try smaller systems like System 7 or System 8. Persistence and extreme luck are necessary to win.
Of course, the best I can suggest for you is to join a syndicate or start one yourself. Combining resources with other like-minded players reduces risks while increasing your chances. It’s fun to play along with friends.
Consider Improving Your Success-To-Failure Ratio
Beyond the system play, I highly recommend understanding how lottery balls behave in a random game and making informed choices using the S/F ratio analysis. Read: How to Win the Lottery According to Math.
For example, a system 10 entry has 210 possible combinations. However, in Lotterycodex analysis, only 36 exhibit a favorable success-to-failure ratio. So, when playing Tattslotto, I recommend not using system play but instead playing manually and using Lotterycodex templates as your guide for making informed choices.
