Lottery Winnings and Wheeling Strategies

There are many different types of lottery games. Some of them are called lottery games like pick 3 and pick 4 games while pick 5, pick 6, pick 7, and mega millions are all Lotto games. Out of all of these games you can win a very small sum of money or you can hit the jackpot. Then again, you have the highest probability of losing any of the Lotto or lottery games you play. The jackpot is what everyone is going for, but there is about a 1 in 18 million chance you will do so. However, some people do, so you might be interested in knowing the payouts on lottery tickets if you decide to start playing.

Many lottery or Lotto tickets that are scratch offs have payouts of $1, $2, $5, $10, or $20. Of course, there are scratch tickets that have prizes that go on up to $50, $100, $500, $1000, and even $10,000. However, when you start getting into the Mega Millions types of lotto games the jackpot could be in the millions or even the hundreds of millions. If you are a small time player then you might enjoy the scratch off games and winning the occasional $20. However, if you are playing the mega millions games you will have to choose numbers and simply wait to win millions. Of course, you might have the winning jackpot number for $300 million, however 50 other people may have the same number. It is not likely that many people will win the same jackpot, but it does happen with lottery clubs who go together and come up with numbers using wheeling strategies to bet on.

Wheeling Strategies

You might have thought that to play mega millions or other lotto games that you would simply come up with some numbers on your own and then just hope your numbers were right. However, many people use wheeling strategies to help them increase their odds of winning the lottery.

Wheeling strategies are used to lower your odds and help you win the Lotto. And, since the wheeling strategies are mathematically based they do make sense and really will help you increase your odds. For example, if you have seven numbers you want to use then wheeling those seven numbers can give you seven different six number combinations. These combinations will dramatically increase your odds of winning. Of course, you will still be one in millions to win, but it does help. So, if you are playing the Lotto you should use wheeling strategies each and every time to increase your odds and get you that much closer to winning the Lotto.

If you are really serious about winning the Lotto then you might want to join a wheeling club. These organizations focus on wheeling numbers and lowering the odds for winning the lottery. Many of these clubs have success, too. However, if you join a wheeling club make sure there are legal documents signed and waiting that provide instructions for how the winnings will be dealt out.

Can you REALLY Improve Your Lottery Results?

Absolutely. Even the Lotto companies themselves tell you so.

How? There are two recommendations that always come up:
a) Play a System Entry and
b) Form a Lotto Syndicate / Lotto Club.

Do these recommendations make sense? Definitely.

Take the following examples from a 49-ball lottery :

- A single 6-number entry has a 1-in-13,983,816 chance of winning;

- An 8-number system entry has a 1-in-499,420 chance of winning;

- A 10-number system entry has a 1-in-66,589 chance of winning;

- A 12-number system entry has a 1-in-15,134 chance of winning;

- A 15-number system entry has a 1-in-2,794 chance of winning;



For a 40-ball lottery, the figures are :

- A single 6-number entry has a 1-in-3,838,380 chance of winning;

- An 8-number system entry has a 1-in-137,085 chance of winning;

- A 10-number system entry has a 1-in-18,278 chance of winning;

- A 12-number system entry has a 1-in-4,154 chance of winning;

- A 15-number system entry has a 1-in-767 chance of winning;

In summary - Playing a 15-ball entry improves your odds OVER 5,000 TIMES!

The problem is - System Entries are expensive.

- A System 8 requires 28 games

- A System 10 requires 210 games

- A System 12 requires 924 games

If you can afford to play a System Entry, we recommend you do, preferably sharing the cost with friends.

If you can't, let's look at the next-best alternative.

Let's suppose you wanted to Improve your Odds by 33% - How would you do it? By playing a System 8. Instead of just six numbers to pick the winners (requiring a 100% success rate), choose eight numbers - a 33.33% increase that allows you to get two wrong and still walk off with First Prize. Sorry, ride off, probably in a Ferrari !

At this stage you need to make a choice. At $1 per game, you need $28 plus agents commission. What do you do if you only have $5 ? Either:

- Find 5 friends, each with $5, giving you $30 in total - and off you go, or

- Decide the best entry you can play for $5.

Surprisingly, there is a very effective way to play eight numbers - if you know the secret of combining them properly - that guarantees First Prize and costs under $5.

Let's suppose you chose the following eight numbers:

3 8 15 20 23 28 35 42

Before you go any further, circle six of these eight numbers.

Here's how to combine the eight numbers for the best results less than $5.00:

Game 1: 3 8 15 20 23 28
Game 2: 3 8 15 20 35 42
Game 3: 3 8 23 28 35 42
Game 4: 15 20 23 28 35 42

Now check off the six numbers you chose previously. How did you do? Pretty effective, huh ? You will ALWAYS have Five or Six winning numbers together if you have all six winning numbers in your eight.

* LOTTOMASTA's HOT TIP * If you play them as FOUR PAIRS, eg
3 & 8 - 15 & 20 - 23 & 28 - 35 & 42
You are GUARANTEED First Prize if you have any three pairs correct.

We agree - it is not as good as a full system 8 - and if you can afford all 28 games, we highly recommend you play the full system 8. If not, this four-game arrangement is pretty neat.

What's the Magic Formula ? This is -

Game 1: 1= 2= 3= 4= 5= 6=
Game 2: 1= 2= 3= 4= 7= 8=
Game 3: 1= 2= 5= 6= 7= 8=
Game 4: 3= 4= 5= 6= 7= 8=

No matter what 8 numbers you choose, substitute your 8 numbers for the numbers 1 to 8 above and you are guaranteed:

- First Prize if any 3 pairs (1/2, 3/4, 5/6, or 7/8) include the six winning numbers

- Five or Six winning numbers together if you have six winning numbers anywhere in your eight

- Five winning numbers together if you have five winning numbers together within any 3 pairs

- Four winning numbers together if you have four winning numbers together within 2 or 3 pairs

Here's how the conversion looks:

1: 1=3 2=8 3=15 4=20 5=23 6=28
2: 1=3 2=8 3=15 4=20 7=35 8=42
3: 1=3 2=8 5=23 6=28 7=35 8=42
4: 3=15 4=20 5=23 6=28 7=35 8=42




CAUTION - Magic Lotto System - or Snake Oil ?

There are some great Lottery Systems on the Web. There are also plenty of B-S systems, snake oil peddled by people with no respect for their customers. So how do you tell which is which ?

a) Does the System have a Guarantee? If not, avoid it like the plague.

b) Are they prepared to give you a Free System you can test? If not, ask yourself - why not?

c) Does the System have a 100% Money Back Guarantee ?

Good Luck!

Lottery Numbers Played to Win: 12 Strategies to Choosing Numbers

1. Make it easy to play your lottery numbers. There is so much technology around us today that there is no excuse for not playing your favourite numbers with relative ease.

2. Play by SMS text message - No need to wait in lines or queues. All you need to do is tap-tap-tap on your mobile and hey presto! You have bought your tickets.

3. Play online - No need to wait in lines or queues. And you can check both the weather report and football results second after buying your lottery ticket.

4. Make it fun to play your lottery numbers so Dream. A lot of energetic activity comes from dreaming. Some of the greatest activities also started off as a dream. Dreaming is a pleasant place to start your lottery win process.

5. Dream a lot. Big dreams lead to bigger actions such as persistence and motivation. Detailed research before activity often comes from a dream or desire to succeed. You will develop the urge to read up on how to choose lottery numbers that win before purchasing tickets.

6. Dream about Boats, Houses, Cars, Holidays, Donating. These are just a few ideas of things that you can dream about.

7. Winning lottery numbers are random - Choose your numbers randomly. Close your eyes and stick a pin onto a chart of numbers. Write down on separate pieces of paper, all the lottery number from 1 to 49. Put the numbers into a hat and choose. This is so random if done properly that there is little chance of picking a series of numbers that are unlikely to win such as 2, 12, 22, 32, 42.

8. Use lucky dips. See above.

9. Use random number generators. A very handy tool. We have researched random number generators and published a list on our website that you can use.

10. Use a good spread of numbers. Start from 1 and go right up to the top (49 for example). Use the full range because the winning lottery numbers will be in the full range.

11. I would try 4, 13, 25, 32, 39. This is a good spread. The range is from 4 to 39. The numbers appear random

12. You might have some luck with lottery numbers like these 17, 24, 26, 31, 40. This is another good example.

Lottery Syndicates

Lottery Syndicates increase the fun and excitement of playing in Lotteries. Syndicate groups can be made up of friends, family or work colleagues. It's a great way of playing in Lotteries and by following a few simple guidelines, playing should be easy, enjoyable and more than likely profitable since you will immensely increase your chances of winning.

Let us assume that you form a Syndicate with 9 other persons. Instead of having one ticket playing for you, you have 10. Therefore, the chance of hitting the Jackpot has increased by 90%. Again, let us assume that your Syndicate hit the Jackpot of say five Million Pounds Sterling. Your share will be £500,000 – that is half a Million!

The first thing you must do when setting up a Syndicate is to draw a list of potential members. These can be family members, friends or even work colleagues. Most Lotteries insist that players be 16 years or older. You have to decide for how many weeks the Syndicate will run. This is much better than collecting money for each draw. You save time running after members for their share of payment and having to go to the vendor each time before a draw to buy the tickets. As the organiser, you automatically appoint yourself as Manager. You should split the winnings evenly (that is one share for each person), but you are entitled to keep back say 5% of the winnings for the effort and responsibility of running the Syndicate.

Under normal Lottery game rules, a prize on a winning ticket is payable to one person. Therefore, as the Manager of the Syndicate, winnings will be in your name. So, it is imperative that you issue an “Agreement Form” which lists the names of the members, the lottery ticket numbers, and the period that the Syndicate will operate.

This “Agreement Form” must be signed and dated by each Syndicate member and if required, signed and dated by an independent witness. The new “Agreement Form” must be raised when a new period comes into play and the members re-instated, perhaps members being replaced or even added.

This “Agreement” is also a necessity if the winnings attract some form of Tax. You would not want to pay all the tax yourself.

As a Syndicate Manager, your responsibilities consist of the following:

# Collecting money from each member
# Buying the tickets
# Look out for the winning numbers

There is an alternative to participating in Lottery Syndicates without the responsibilities associated with running such Syndicates.

There is a five year old British Company which has been successfully running Lottery Syndicates for both the UK Lottery and the Euro Millions Lottery. Anybody can join their system, from anywhere in the world, as thousands have done already from 133 different countries. There are many advantages of joining their Syndicate. The chances of winning the Jackpot in the UK Lottery increase by a massive 702%. There is an even better chance of scooping the Euro Millions Jackpot – by a massive 3,600%. Another advantage is that you do not have to stand in a queue to buy tickets and there is no chance of misplacing tickets. You do not have to continuously check results – the Company will send you the draw results directly to your registered E-Mail address. Moreover, the Company will advise you when you win. The best part is that this Company has turned this Lottery Syndicate in a Network Marketing business and not only will you be able to earn generous commissions, but you will also be given the opportunity to play effectively for free.
