Well, whether you are play the National Lottery and EuroMillions religiously each week, or just whenever the fancy takes you... Which of us could deny that the opening of winning a merge of million would not come in handy!
However, with the chances of winning standing at 1 in 14 Million - I hate to be the one to break this to you... But you will need some serious good luck or a top-notch Psychic to help you out.
Following are some leading tips to help you growth chances of scooping a big lottery prize that I'm going to share with you right now.
Key to Success #1: pick Random Numbers
Winning the National Lottery jackpot might not necessarily warrant a good prize...this depends on the estimate of combined winners in that draw. For each player who matches all six main numbers, the prize is divided out equally.
Almost one time in six, no-one has won a jackpot share; and one time in five, one winner has scooped the whole jackpot prize. At the other extreme, there was one week where a report 133 people excellent the winning six digits, giving them each a measly few hundred thousand! By choosing estimate combinations which fewer people make your mind up you will sacrifice the estimate of people with winning tickets, and thus secure a larger share of the gold...So how can we find more random numbers?
-Ask colse to friends and house
-Can you see if there are any numbers thought about to be 'unlucky'? For example, the number13?
-Most people will pick the birthdays of their loved ones or principal dates. Although you may think you're being clever, this is one of the key ways players pick their numbers, meaning that the numbers 1-31 are used most frequently.
-Take a look at the winning numbers of Angela Kelly, the postal laborer who became the Uk's biggest National Lottery winner in August 2007. The numbers picked were 23, 40, 42, 43 and 49 and lucky stars 2 and 6. Having four numbers in the 40's improved her chances of keeping that £35.4 million undivided. Try and think what estimate combinations would be 'unpopular'.
This week it could be you, and the last thing you want is to split your jackpot prize with 139 other winners! By choosing numbers which fewer players are using will growth the chances of a higher prize should you win - so try and not result the crowd.
Key to Success #2: Check your numbers
You'd be surprised at how many people don't check whether they've won. It is a good idea to check your lottery tickets weekly, whether by referring to newspapers or online. Many people find it helps to form the habit of doing this on the same days each week.
Winning tickets have to be claimed within 180 days of the draw, otherwise the money goes off to the Lotto's Good Causes fund. A marker worth £9,476,995 was once distributed in this way and it was the 24th prize in excess of a million pounds to be unclaimed. Ouch!
Key to Success #3: Buy a ticket!
This is the golden rule of lottery success... Yet, it is surprising about the estimate of people who miss this key step!
You may remember the story of a man who prayed everyday to win the lottery, only to throw his arms up in disgust when after some years he was still broke. 'What do you want me to do?' he screamed up into the heavens...'Meet me half way, buy a ticket!' was Gods response!
To growth your chances of winning the lottery jackpot, try and find uncommon estimate sequences, go out and buy a lottery marker and tuck it away somewhere safe... And of course, check your numbers promptly.
