Systems
A system is a strategic way of playing a pool of numbers, to maximise your chances of matching them in a given draw. There are a few different ways of building a SuperEnalotto system, but the most common and popular approach is the integrated system.
An integrated system is where, rather than choosing six numbers from 90 for each line, you instead choose a larger pool of numbers and play every combination of those numbers. For example, there are 28 ways in which you can combine eight numbers without creating duplicate sets. These 28 combinations would be your entries.
The purpose of an integrated system is to exhaustively cover a subset of numbers, which has a couple of benefits for you if your numbers do come up: it reduces your chances of missing out on a larger prize, but could also increase your winnings significantly. If you buy 28 tickets based on an integrated system of eight numbers, and six of those numbers appear during a draw, not only would you win the jackpot but every prize from Match 4 up.
There are other ways to utilise this kind of thinking. For example, if buying more than 20 tickets for a draw is undesirable, you can instead opt for a reduced system – where you still pick a subset of numbers, but do not purchase every combination from that subset. Your chances of winning the jackpot are lowered, but you still have a chance of winning multiple prizes from your tickets.
SuperEnalotto tickets support system entries, offering pre-packaged system options for ease of play – from reduced system entries to the Multistella System, which gives you combinations of main numbers and a set of Superstar numbers.
So how would you go about picking your numbers for a system?
Statistics
You might want to use information from draws past to inform your system pool. This Statistics guide shows data from every SuperEnalotto draw since the lottery began in December 1997, giving you an exhaustive insight that could help you pick your numbers.
You might want to consider the draw frequency of each number; currently, the number 60 is the least-drawn main number, at 161 times since 1997. Could it show up more often in the future? You might also want to learn which numbers are most “overdue”. The number 81 was last drawn in October 2018 at the time of writing; would this be a sensible number to add to an integrated system? These statistics and more are available to you, including most and least common pairs, and yet more data on Superstar numbers.
It must be said, however, that luck has no memory. Despite what these statistics may suggest, every combination of numbers is equally likely to come up, regardless how common or how rare a particular number has been. Nonetheless, these statistics can be a handy tool for you to build number systems you can feel confident with.
So far, then, the only sure-fire way to improve your odds of winning SuperEnalotto has been to purchase more entries. But what if you’re not too keen on buying more than a couple of lines? What if you’re not particularly interested in playing a system game? Your solution may well be to join a syndicate.
Syndicates
A syndicate is a group of people who each buy shares in a set of lottery tickets. Any winnings from those tickets are shared between all syndicate share-holders. Though the prize payout for any winnings would be lower, on account of sharing winnings with a number of others, the cost of playing decreases while the chance of winning increases. If a syndicate of 10 players buy 28 SuperEnalotto tickets, they would each pay 10 percent of the total cost, and receive 10 percent of the winnings.
Whether you choose to create a system or join a syndicate, one last sure-fire way to improve your SuperEnalotto chances is to ensure you never miss a draw. Choosing your numbers online is a foolproof way to achieve this; creating an account online means you can subscribe to future draws, meaning you’ll never forget to enter. Any winnings are paid directly into your account, where you can either withdraw them or utilise them for future draws.
