A winning lotto strategy
Winning the lotto would be a dream come true, wouldn't it? But it's so damn hard to do so. The odds are just not very good. Some people claim that there are hundreds of strategies that could help you win. Is this true? Is there really a strategy?
The good news is that there is a strategy. It's actually very simple - Buy more tickets. Everybody knows that buying more tickets increases your chances of winning. Perhaps you were looking for a better strategy. Sorry, but there are no others - That's the only one.
See, lotto are almost purely random and that means that nobody can develop strategies to beat them. You can't predict random events and lotto are no different.
So, the only way to better your odds is to buy more tickets. Let me show what happens to your odds when you buy more tickets. I'll use an example - The 649 lottery. The odds of winning the 649 lotto, with just one ticket, are approximately 1-in-14-million. What happens to your odds if you buy two tickets? The odds drop to just 1-in-7-million. Now, let's say you buy ten tickets. Then your odds would drop even further - 1-in-1.4-million.
Sure, buying too many lotto tickets is not smart.
But that's the only formula to win the lotto.
And yes, there really is a strategy to win the lotto, it just costs more.
