The Biggest winning lotto Tip - Join a Syndicate and play a System Entry; it's the one thing all lottery experts agree on. But if you want to play alone, here are the other Top 9 tips for winning lotto from LottoMasta International. The examples below use a 45-ball lottery for illustration but the concepts apply to all lotteries. It's a good idea to avoid having all 6 lottery numbers under 31. While it is not an absolute rule, payouts are generally much lower. As an example, NSW State Lotto (Australia) had 27 First Division winners in its draw on 9 Oct 2000, when all the winning lottery numbers were under 31. Imagine - 27 people went to bed thinking they had won a million - and woke up to find they had $37,037! Lottery experts refer to this as the Birthday Numbers Syndrome. Playing all the numbers in your lottery guarantees you have all 6 winning lotto numbers somewhere in your overall entry. And it only requires 8 - 9 games. With just one ball guaranteed correct, your Lottery is now a 5-from-44 game. The odds for this are 1-in-1,086,008 (45-ball lottery). While it is still a 1-in-a-million shot, that is a lot better than a 1-in-a-8-Million shot! This simple technique takes 2 minutes and requires only 8 games for a 45-ball lottery, 9 for a 49-ball lottery. Any winning lotto edge you can get in a game that requires beating odds of 8,145,060-to-1 (45-ball lottery) or 13,983,816-to-1 (49-ball lottery) is worth having. Has your lottery changed the total number of balls? For example, if you are still using numbers from when Australian lotto was a 40-ball game - add some new games with lottery numbers over 40. The total combinations possible from 40 numbers are 3,838,380. The combinations possible from 45 numbers are 8,145,060. If your numbers are all under 40 - more than half the combinations that can win are missing from your games. Actual winning lotto results show that the most likely lottery result has 3-odd lottery numbers and 3-even lottery numbers. This comes out 1-week-in-3 (on average) and represents 33.5% of the 8,145,060 possible combinations. Add 4-odd lottery numbers plus 2-even lottery numbers, and 2-odd lottery numbers plus 4-even lottery numbers - and you cover 81% of all possible results. Put another way, these three winning lotto game types win (on average) 8 weeks out 10. This is reasonably consistent across all 6-ball lotto games. A winning lotto result with no consecutive lottery numbers occurs around 47% of the time. A lottery result with just two consecutive lottery numbers accounts for 40% of the 8,145,060 possible winning lotto combinations. Together, these two results account for 87% of all lottery results - a 9-weeks-out-of-10 occurence. These figures hold true for most 6-ball lotteries. Try to keep "balance" using games with three high lottery numbers and three low lottery numbers (33% of the possible combinations are of this type). Balanced entries do best - try not to have more than 3 numbers in any set of 15 (1-15, 16-30 and 31-45) for a 45-ball lottery, not more than 3 numbers in any set of 16 (1-16, 17-32 and 33-49) for a 49-ball lottery. The most probable winning lotto result will have no lottery numbers from the previous week - around 40% of all lottery results - or just one lottery number from the previous week - 42% of all lottery results. That's 82% in total, meaning that this game type result wins (on average) 8 weeks out 10. Your lottery results will improve if you get a Lottery Education. Most of the above facts are from 2 books - 1,000 Weeks of Lotto - What Worked, What Didn't (a 20-year analysis of Australia's Saturday Night lottery results) and Winning Lotto Secrets. Both are available from or LottoMasta International, PO Box 196, Bond University, Qld 4229, Australia. Most lotto players resemble a golfer trying to hit a hole-in-one - while blindfold!
