How to Win the UK National Lottery

The National Lottery is the UK based lotto draw that takes place twice weekly. It is a 6 from 49 draw and therefore the advice in this article applies to all 6 from 49 lottery draws.

When you play a 6/49 lottery you should be aware that buying a ticket in the standard way gives you almost no chance of winning. The odds of landing the top lottery prize are so huge that you have a better chance of dying!

Obviously you need something to reduce the standard of odds of winning from 1 in 13,983,816 to something a little bit more realistic.

The National Lottery has remained very popular since it was first unveiled in the mid 90s.In the last 16 years a lot of data has been collected and number patterns have quite clearly emerged.

The first thing you can do to improve your chances of winning is to identify those numbers that occur in the draws more often than others. Be sure that you do not pick any numbers together that never appear together. These number combinations will be obvious to you.

An example of this would be numbers that increment by 1. A number sequence like 6,7,8,9,10,11 has very little chance of being drawn! Avoid picking all number that are odd or all numbers that are even. Although these combinations do get drawn it is only rarely and the chances of you having all the odd or even numbers right is minuscule. Also avoid picking numbers that show clear patterns that common sense will tell you are unlikely to occur such as numbers that jump in sequence.

So, the first step to increasing your odds is to pick lottery "hot" numbers and avoid the bad numbers! This is only the beginning however as there are other steps that can increase your odds even more.

Try to have a relatively even spread of numbers if you can. After you have gained a list of numbers that are drawn in your lottery more often than the others you should refine your choices further. Make sure you pick numbers that are not all grouped together 6 high numbers or 6 low numbers or even 6 numbers in the mid range are number are combinations that rarely get drawn. Spread the numbers out.

Syndicates win the lottery more often! That' s because wise syndicate players wheel their numbers. If you play in a syndicate or can get one formed a strongly suggest you wheel your numbers!
