The Pools
The Pools is a ‘6 from 38’ lottery game with a twist. The winning numbers are derived from results of real life soccer matches rather than numbered balls being drawn from a barrel. 38 matches from Australia and overseas are listed every week and numbered 1 to 38. The six highest scoring draws determine the six winning match numbers. The 7th highest drawing game provides the supplementary number. You don’t have to know anything about soccer because The Pools can be played just like a normal lottery game. You can even play an auto pick entry. This lottery is extremely popular and has one of the best odds around.
How to Play
For The Pools, players choose 6 numbers from the set between 1 and 38. The 6 matches that accumulate to the highest total drawn scores are the winning numbers. For example, Match 1 with a score of 3-3 has a higher total score than Match 2 with a score of 2-2.
