How to play LOTTO
More about LΟΤΤΟ
Game Οbjective
LOTTO is a numerical lottery game of chance. Its objective is the exact prediction of 6 numbers drawn out of a series of 49. Players can participate by marking single columns or using systems (full, standard or combined).
Slip
Single Column
Select 6 out of 49 numbers.
Full development system
Select more than 6 in the field of 49 numbers (e.g. 9).
Table of columns / successes
Standard Systems
Standard LOTTO systems offer you the possibility to play with fewer columns and lower costs than a full system, choosing the same amount of numbers. Standard systems do not offer the same chance of success as a full system, even if you have correctly predicted all 6 numbers.
A total of 25 standard systems are offered.
There are 7 stand-alone systems that can be played in any area of the slip and are distinguished by the characteristic that the requested numbers are 6. The remaining 18 can only be used for combination systems. The system code is filled in the "Codes" field. Detailed information can be found by downloading the Autonomous Screening Program for free

Participation using standard system with code 48 (9 selected numbers / 12 columns)

Combination Systems
Playing with combination systems, the requested 6 numbers should be selected in a combination of 2 or 3 playing areas of the slip.
There are 3 rules to follow when playing combination systems.
- In each system of combinations, the sum of the requested numbers in all filled areas must be 6.
- The selected numbers (from which will be obtained the requested 6) should not exceed 49.
- Different numbers from the total of 49 numbers should be filled in each area of the slip.
The requested numbers per area (which will be 6 in total) are filled in the “Codes” field of each area.
Participation with a Combination System is always of the form Area A x Area B or Area A x Area B x Area C.
The remaining areas mentioned above (A, B & C) must be left blank.
Combination systems can be :
- Combinations of full system development
- Combinations of full development and standard systems
The success rate depends on the number of correct predictions in each area (100% success rate is achieved, in case selections in all areas turn out to be correct).
Participation through full development system
Area A – requested 3 of the 3 selected numbers
How? By marking the number 3 in the field “System Codes” and marking more than 3 in the field of 49 numbers (in the example we have marked 5).
Area B – requested 2 of the 4 selected numbers
How? By marking the number 2 in the field “System Codes” and marking more than 2 in the field of 49 numbers (in the example we have marked 4).
Area C – requested 1 of the 3 selected numbers
How? By marking the number 1 in the field “System Codes” and marking more than 1 in the field of 49 numbers (in the example we have marked 3).
In this way you participate with :
- 10 columns resulting from the area A
- 6 columns resulting from the area B
- 3 columns resulting from the area C
With19 columns in total and the corresponding cost.
Participation through combination of full development and standard systems
Area A – requested 3 of the 3 selected numbers
How? By marking the number 3 in the field “System Codes” and marking exactly 3 numbers in the field of 49 numbers.
Area B - requested 2 of the 10 selected numbers
How? By marking the number 10 ( 1 & 0) in the field “Systems Codes” you use the standard system “10” , so marking 10 numbers in the field of 49 numbers the system selects the 2 of them.
Area C – requested 1 of the 4 selected numbers
How? By marking the number 1 in the field “System Codes” and marking more than 1 numbers in the field of 49 numbers.
In this way you participate with :
- 1 columns resulting from the area A
- 5 columns resulting from the area B
- 4 columns resulting from the area C
With 9 columns in total and the corresponding cost.
Random Selection
Α. By selecting only “Random Selection” without selecting the numbers, the terminal will generate a simple column with the random selection of 6 numbers, from 1 to 49.
For example, if you mark only the field “Random Selection” and nothing else in the specific playing area (here is area A) then the system will generate 6 random numbers, i.e.1 column.
Β. By selecting “Random Selection” and 1 number from the field of 49 numbers, the terminal will generate a complete system of random numbers (1-49) , equal with the selected number.
For example, if you mark the field “Random Selection” and choose the number 9 out of the total 49 of the playing area A, then the system will create a complete system of 9 numbers, so 84 columns will be created.
C . By selecting “Random and 1 code of a standard system, the terminal will generate as many random numbers as correspond to the selected system ( eg for system 58, are generated 12 numbers, which means 132 columns).
For example, if you check the “Random Selection” field and select from the “System Codes” area the standardized system 58, then the system will create 132 columns (that is the corresponding to this standard system).
Note : the number ,you choose, has to be greater than or equal to 6.
Consecutive Draws
By filling the relevant fields, you can participate with up to 100 consecutive draws (starting from current) . Multiple selections work cumulatively.
Participation in PROTO through LOTTO slip
There is also the option to participate in PROTO (with up to 186 consecutive numbers), by marking the area at the bottom of a LOTTO slip.
Multiple selections work cumulatively (e.g. for 125 consecutive numbers mark 5, 20 and 100)
Note: In case of participating in PROTO through TZOKER, LOTTO, PROPO, PROPOGAOL slips, 2 different entry tickets are issued – 1 for each game.
Column Value
A single column (6 from 49 numbers for 1 draw) costs 1,00€.
