Does anyone here play the lotto?
« on: September 01, 2008, 08:00:50 AM »
I am entertaining the thought of starting to play whilst in the UK. Any tips or strategies? Anyone play here regularly?
I hate the State.

Hell, even if I just won 3,000,000 pounds, I wouldn't complain.

The only strategy that can ensure a win is to play every combination - over 16 million! You're sure to win the jackpot but will be out a few million. You can also do the Euro lottery on Fridays. The current jackpot for that is around $180million and that's a one off payment, tax free. Win it and you get the check on Monday!

Avoid picking the numbers 1,2,3,4,5,6 as a sequence. I used to do that every week for about 2 years thinking that no one else would choose them and I'd be the only winner. But it's the most selected series and I'd have shared it with about 40,000 others!

I do every once in awhile and have never won shiit.

The lottery is nothing more than a tax on people who are bad at math....

A chance of winning that sits at 80 million to one??

Look at it like a casino... If the house didn't make lots of $$$, they wouldn't be doing it....

Of course they make more money.

Probaly 200million tickets are bought. And 50million is given oit in prizes.

To win even a tenner takes odds of 100s of 1000s to 1.
