The Stats To Help You Win The Lottery

Almost everyone loves to hear interesting data and statistics, however, most of the time they are utterly pointless in real life. A wonderful example of this would be the fact that 85% of people live north of the Equator. Another instance is that only 12% of people who set New Year’s resolutions will adhere to them.

The chance of winning the lottery is roughly 14 million to 1. So what do you think the odds of winning it twice is? Well a Navy war veteran who survived a jet crash and escaped a P.O.W. camp in Korea got really lucky when he won it twice! What do you think the probability of that occurring is?

Some time ago a renowned New York newspaper reported on a working-class man who spent most of his hard earned money on lottery tickets. Ray Otero irrationally believes that by ploughing his money into lottery tickets he is increasing his chances of hitting a jackpot prize with each purchase (by sheer number of tickets).

The fact is that statistically, purchasing more tickets that are selected arbitrarily and not using a mathematical method does not increase your odds of winning a prize in the lottery at all!

Do you know that if you get a 6 from 49 lottery ticket, like those sold on the UK National Lottery, on a Monday that you have a statistically improved chance of being dead on Saturday than taking home the lottery jackpot?

This unfortunate statistic is true because you have a 14,000,000 to 1 chance of winning a jackpot on a 6 from 49 draw and the odds of being hit by lightning or killed by lightning are around 2650000 to 1. These low odds apply to every ticket you purchase. So just because you have 100 tickets it does not imply you have a greater chance of winning!

However, it is feasible to increase your chances of winning the lottery when you use the mathematical statistics to your advantage. Lottery wheeling, for example, is a good way to increase your chances of getting a grand prize in the lottery. Have you been searching high and low to find sure ways to win the lottery?

When you pick an extra number, so that you pick 7 numbers instead of 6, and then "wheel" so that all numbers end up on a ticket together, two things occur. Although wheeling means you must purchase more lottery tickets it also makes sure you have a much, much bigger chance of taking home a top lottery prize.

When you wheel 7 numbers rather than 6 you go from a 14 million to 1 probability of winning the lottery to half a million to 1 - simply by adding an extra number and the cost of the tickets just adds up to £28!

Although wheeling is not the most successful of lottery systems (there are much more definite ones that guarantee a win) if Mr. Otero had used such a system (and his $30,000 a year lottery stake money) and played it with a 6 from 49 draw he might have been celebrating a lottery win a long time ago!
