Thinking about trying Toto System 9? If you do, you’ll be paying for 84 ordinary entries since you pick nine numbers instead of just six. A System 9 bet costs $84 and gets you 84 different six-number combinations—so your chance to win jumps compared to a single $1 ordinary entry.

Let’s dig into how that $84 breaks down, what odds and prize groups you’re dealing with, and how winnings get calculated after every draw.

You’ll also get a quick guide on buying System 9, checking results, and using tools to estimate possible prizes.

Understanding Toto System 9 and Its Price

System 9 is basically a way to cover more six-number combinations by paying more.

It sits between System 8 and System 10 in cost and coverage, and you can win multiple prizes in a single draw since it creates a bunch of ordinary-entry lines.

What Is Toto System 9?

With System 9, you pick nine unique numbers for one ticket instead of six.

Singapore Pools then generates every possible six-number entry from your nine picks, so you don’t need to fill out tons of slips to cover all those combos.

You still play by the regular Toto rules: six main winning numbers plus an additional number get drawn.

Every six-number combo from your nine picks works just like a single S$1 ordinary entry.

System 9 just bundles them into one higher-cost ticket.

How Much Does Toto System 9 Cost?

You’ll pay S$84 for a System 9 entry.

That’s because you’re getting 84 ordinary-entry combinations, at S$1 each.

You pay the full amount when you place the bet, whether it’s at a physical outlet or online.

If you want more than one unit of the same System 9 selection, you just multiply S$84 by the number of units.

So, 2 units would be S$168.

Hang on to your ticket or online receipt—you’ll need it to claim any winnings.

How Many Combinations Are in System 9?

System 9 gives you 84 unique six-number combinations from your nine numbers.

That’s just “9 choose 6” in math terms, which equals 84.

Every combo acts as its own ordinary entry, with the same shot at matching all six winning numbers.

Holding 84 ordinary entries in one system bet means you can actually win more than one prize group in the same draw.

That might mean you hit multiple lower-tier prizes, or even share Group 1 if different combos hit the jackpot.

System Roll works a bit differently—it fixes five numbers and cycles the sixth, making 44 entries at S$44.

Comparison With Other System Entry Options

System 7, System 8, System 9, System 10, System 11, and System 12 all scale up by combinations and price.

Prices match the number of ordinary entries:

• System 7: 7 entries → S$7
• System 8: 28 entries → S$28
• System 9: 84 entries → S$84
• System 10: 210 entries → S$210
• System 11: 462 entries → S$462
• System 12: 924 entries → S$924

System 9 lands in the middle—more coverage than System 8, but way cheaper than System 12.

System Roll (S$44) is a different animal: you fix five numbers and roll the last one for focused coverage.

Pick what fits your budget and how many combinations you want.

Some folks like spreading bets with smaller systems, others just go all in.

Prize Groups, Odds, and Winnings in System 9

System 9 lets you cover loads more number combinations compared to a single six-number set.

Sure, you pay more, but you’re also buying a bunch of chances across the official prize groups, and you can win in lower groups even if you don’t match all six winning numbers.

Prize Group Structure and Probabilities

System 9 prints every possible 6-number combo from your 9 numbers.

You end up with 84 unique 6-number lines.

Each line gets judged against the six Winning Numbers and the Additional Number drawn.

Prizes go from Groups 1–7.

Group 1 needs all six Winning Numbers.

Groups 2–4 are for five or four matches, sometimes including the Additional Number.

Groups 5–7 are fixed, smaller prizes for fewer matches.

The odds for a single 6-number line to match all six is 1 in 13,983,816.

With 84 lines, your chance for a Group 1 hit becomes 84 in 13,983,816—so about 1 in 166,475.

Winning Chances With System 9

System 9 bumps up your overall chance to win anything because you cover more combos.

For example, your odds of hitting at least three winning numbers on one line are way better than for matching all six.

Lines can overlap though, so you might win multiple prizes in a single draw—maybe a Group 5 and a Group 7—since different lines can hit different prize groups.

Your expected hit rate goes up, but the jackpot odds are still pretty slim compared to smaller prizes.

How Winnings and Shares Are Calculated

Prize pool rules set aside a chunk of sales for prizes.

Major groups get certain percentages.

Lower groups usually pay fixed amounts, like Group 5, 6, and 7.

Fixed groups always pay the same per-line amount, but percentage groups change with the pool size and number of winners.

Jackpot Payouts and Group 1 Prizes

Group 1 (the Jackpot) grabs the biggest slice of the prize pool.

If nobody wins Group 1, that money can snowball into future draws, up to a limit.

With System 9, you still need one of your lines to match all six Winning Numbers for Group 1.

Your 84 combos give you more shots, but you might still have to share the Group 1 if other people also win.

When there are multiple winners, the Group 1 prize splits evenly, so each winner gets a smaller piece.

How to Buy and Play Toto System 9

You buy a System 9 ticket by picking nine distinct Toto numbers from 1–49.

You pay for all the combinations those numbers create.

Bets can be placed at authorized outlets, through Singapore Pools online, or by using QuickPick and System Roll if you want to speed things up.

Where to Place System 9 Bets

You can buy System 9 at any Singapore Pools outlet, on their website, or through the app.

At an outlet, fill in the bet slip under the System Entry section, mark “System 9,” and write your nine chosen numbers (您选择的号码).

Hand it to the teller.

If you’re online, log in to your Singapore Pools account, pick TOTO, select System Entry → System 9, and enter your numbers or use QuickPick.

Selecting Numbers for System 9

Choose nine distinct Toto numbers from 1 to 49.

Your nine numbers automatically generate all the 6-number combos, which increases your odds that at least one will match the winning numbers.

Write your picks clearly on the slip.

Don’t mark the same number twice.

If you want, treat some of your nine as “must-haves” and pick the rest randomly.

Just remember: System 9 boosts your coverage, but it doesn’t guarantee a win.

QuickPick and System Roll Options

QuickPick can randomly generate nine numbers for System 9.

Use QuickPick if you’re not feeling picky about numbers.

System Roll works differently.

It fixes five numbers and rolls the rest, giving you broad coverage with fewer fixed choices.

It’s listed separately from System 9 on slips and online.

So, go for QuickPick if you want speed, System 9 for nine chosen numbers, or System Roll if you like five fixed numbers plus a rolling number.

Toto Results, Draws, and Prize Calculation Tools

You can check official draw numbers, use calculators to estimate System 9 payouts, and look at past draws to spot snowballing jackpots.

These tools show winning numbers, extra numbers, prize breakdowns, and whether a draw rolled over.

Checking Toto Draw Results

You can check official Singapore Toto results on those nights—look for the six main winning numbers and the extra number (额外号码) on your ticket or the site.

Always use official sources like Singapore Pools or trusted result feeds.

Third-party sites aren’t always up to date.

When checking, note the draw date, all winning numbers (开奖号码 / 开奖号), and the prize tiers.

Record the number of units on your ticket (like “1 of 28”) to calculate your winnings.

Using Prize Calculators for System 9

A System 9 ticket covers nine numbers in 84 combos.

To estimate payouts, use a prize calculator that accepts System 9, the draw date, and how many units you bought.

The calculator checks your combos against the official winning numbers and works out prize shares for each tier.

Calculators use the draw’s official share values, so you’ll get results that match the prize breakdowns if your details are right.

System 9 can win in multiple prize tiers in one draw.

The calculator will sort your matches by tier (like 3-match, 4-match, etc.) and show estimated prize money for each.

Save or print out your calculator results.

Historical Results and Snowballing

If you take a look at past Toto draws, you’ll start spotting frequency patterns and noticing those snowballing events. Snowballing happens when nobody wins the top prize, so the prize pool just rolls over to the next round.

People have dug through historical data to see which draws rolled over and how massive some jackpots got. I usually stick to official archives or poke around in a result history tool—just filter by month and year. That way, you can check past winning numbers (开奖号码) and see the prize breakdowns.

When you’re tracking snowballing, make a note of how many times the prize rolled over in a row and how big the pool got for each draw. This gives you a better idea of what to expect if you’re playing System 9 tickets. Maybe it’ll even help you decide if it’s worth jumping into a particular draw.

Editor’s notes

Transitions between number phases are subtle. Sudden changes often signal temporary instability. I wait for smooth transitions before acting.
