Everyone wants to win the lottery, but most of us do not even hit a number on the ticket. So, how do the chances of winning increase? Actually, it's usually luck. The more tickets you buy for a specific draw, the more chances you will have to win. However, some people believe that it is more than just luck.


Method 1


Decide between random numbers and your own numbers

Analyze the probabilities. The best option is not yet known. There are more people who win with random numbers; however, the number of people who play their numbers at random is greater. Statistically, the probabilities are the same for any combination of numbers. Therefore, it does not matter if you choose your lucky numbers or let the computer choose them for you.


• Although it may seem illogical, the combination of numbers: 1-2-3-4-5-6 is a combination of numbers as random as any other. For example, if you play on Irish lottery, it’s better if you can find Irish lottery winning numbers.


• The only problem with proper numbers is that humans are usually programmed in the same way. So your favorite numbers are probably also someone else's favorite numbers. Therefore, if you win with the combination: 7-14-21-28-35-42, you probably have to share the prize.

Method 2

Buy scratch cards

Invest in small payments. The smaller the prize, the more likely it is to win? Maybe Mohan Srivastava, a statistician who lives in Toronto, claims to have deciphered the trick. According to him, you have to invest a lot of time to win a small prize.

• A common scratch card is likely to be between 1: 5 and 1: 2.5 to be a winner. Keep this in mind when you choose your cards.


• Ask the employee which cards are the most sold and which ones are the most winning. Choose a game that has given many losses. That way you can get a winning card. If the odds are 1: 5, it is assumed that by buying five cards you will have a winner.

Method 3 


Implement strategies

Buy more than one ticket. The more tickets you buy, the more opportunities you will have to win. Join a group lottery. Gather a group in your office, school, church, center activities or any other place where people are willing to share the lottery prize. You will receive less money, because you will be sharing the prize, but your chances of winning will increase significantly.

Hopefully this article can give you an inspiration to be better in your next lottery games.
