Increasing Your Odds In Lotto
Posted By seovine on March 7, 2011
Many people, if not most, would not consider gambling a legitimate subject in financial planning. But with millions of people involved in gaming of all sorts, and billions of euros, pounds, and dollars at stake, why not? Some people gamble strictly for entertainment; but what if you want to gamble to actually produce income?
Lotto is one of the most popular forms of risking one’s money. Although no one has yet perfected the technique or the formula to second guess the winning combination, many manage to make positive earnings by guessing the probable winning combinations. Some of them rely on math, while some rely on intuition. The best chance you have of cracking the winning combination depends on how you use the most vital ingredient required for every day living – commonsense.
Rather than focusing on expensive strategies that use random combinations, you ought to focus on possible winning combinations. This can be achieved by simply categorizing winning combinations. If you decide, based on historical data, that a future jackpot will have mostly numbers from 1 to 9, then you should have combination of numbers that will include at least four numbers from 1 to 9. This way you will not have to buy more number of tickets to increase your odds of hitting the big prize. By not buying too many tickets you not only save money but also have enough to play another day — which could prove to be your lucky day.
Playing in syndicate is also a good idea but then you have to share your prize money with all the members of the syndicate; this means you still keep your job and report back to office on the following Monday. Categorizing numbers does not take a lot of brains. What you do is target a group of numbers and try out different combinations. For example, if you have deduced that 1 to 9 may be the combination that you need to focus on, then your combination might be 1,4,6,9,26,30 or 1,2,5,7,36,39 or 1,3,8,11,29,45. Now in these numbers you will note that your focus is on numbers from 1 – 9; the other numbers are ones which have an outside chance of being drawn. You may not necessarily hit the jackpot with this system, but you will surely win decent sums of money to finance your future games, and if lady luck happens to smile on you; you can forget going to work on the following Monday.
The commonsense approach requires that you play deliberately. If you are targeting the group from 1 to 9 it would be utterly foolish to draw four numbers in a series like 1,2,3,4 or 6,7,8,9 as the first four numbers; doing this reduces your chances of hitting the jackpot or any small prize to practically zero. It means, even before the winning numbers are drawn, you have already lost the game. This is akin to literally throwing away your hard-earned fortune.
So, the insight to winning lotto? Well, the best strategy is to zero in on the probable winning combinations and then use common sense to arrive at the combination of six numbers. If you follow this practice every time you play, our chances of hitting the jackpot go up dramatically. If you are going to gamble, do so intelligently, and play to win.
