Winning With Systems
The more numbers you play in a system, the more chances you have to win, as you will enter more lines into the draw. You also have the chance of winning multiple prizes, as each line is generated from the same range of numbers.
For example, if you played a 7+1 system and one of your lines matched all six main numbers and the Viking number drawn, your six other lines would also win a prize in a lower tier, as shown below:
| Numbers Played in System | Winning Vikinglotto Numbers Drawn |
|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 + Viking 8 | 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 + Viking 8 |
| Combinations Played | Numbers Matching the Winning Line | Prize |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 + Viking 8 | 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 + Viking 8 | Jackpot |
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7 + Viking 8 | 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 + Viking 8 | 5 + 1 Tier |
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7 + Viking 8 | 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 + Viking 8 | 5 + 1 Tier |
| 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7 + Viking 8 | 1, 2, 3, 5, 6 + Viking 8 | 5 + 1 Tier |
| 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7 + Viking 8 | 1, 2, 4, 5, 6 + Viking 8 | 5 + 1 Tier |
| 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 + Viking 8 | 1, 3, 4, 5, 6 + Viking 8 | 5 + 1 Tier |
| 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 + Viking 8 | 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 + Viking 8 | 5 + 1 Tier |
If you play a 10+2 system and one line matches all six numbers plus the Viking number, 389 of your other lines would also win a prize. The following tables show how many of your lines would win when playing some of the most common systems.
