SCORES of people in Mzansi and throughout the world play the lotto almost every day, with hopes of winning the ultimate jackpot.
According to Yourlottoservice, a United Kingdom-based service provider, in most cases, people win a couple of hundreds but there is a tiny chance of hitting the jackpot.

The service provider outlined the following three reasons why people are not cashing in:
1. You’re missing weeks
Playing the lotto every week increases one’s chances of winning. So, if you want to cash in on a jackpot that is paying big, you have to play every draw provided that you have money to do so.
2. You are playing alone
Playing tickets alone is another factor highlighted in this expert analysis as it limits your chances of winning. At least try roping in your family, friends and colleagues so you can pick different numbers and ultimately increase your chances of winning big.
However, the trick of playing collaborated tickets is that you will have to share the winning prize, although it will increase the likelihood of you scooping some cash.
3. You’re choosing too many odds or evens
“Expert analysis has revealed that all-odd and all-even line-ups are drawn less than 3% of the time,” said Yourlottoservice.
It is therefore recommended that you pick three odd and two even, or two odd and three even numbers. Usually, these patterns are said to be occurring by over 68% in many draws in Europe. With that said, try your luck but never gamble with money you cannot afford to lose.
