System Entries

A System entry allows you to enter up to 20 of your selected numbers, and every possible combination of those numbers, into The Pools. Playing a System entry multiplies the number of games you are playing, so a winning System entry pays multiple prizes

System entries are defined by the amount of numbers you wish to play. For example, select 7 numbers to play a System 7 entry, select 8 numbers to play a System 8, and so on.

Systems 4 to 5

Play a System 4 or 5 by:

  • Selecting either 4 or 5 numbers in a game panel on a coupon for The Pools and marking the 'System' box; or
  • Asking your SA Lotteries retail agent for a System 4 or 5 Easi-Pick for The Pools and letting the terminal generate the 4 or 5 numbers for you.

Your selection of numbers is then combined with all remaining numbers in The Pools (1 to 38) to create every possible unique six-number combination containing your selected numbers. For example:

ThePoolsSystems4-5

Systems 7 to 20

Play a System 7 to 20 entry by:

  • Selecting between 7 and 20 numbers in a game panel on a coupon for The Pools and marking the 'System' box; or
  • Asking your SA Lotteries retail agent to generate an Easi-Pick for The Pools System entry of your choice (from 7 to 20) and letting the terminal generate the 7 to 20 numbers for you.

Your numbers are then combined to create every possible unique six-number combination using your selected numbers. For example:

ThePoolsSystems7-20
