Have your every tried to play any of the lottery games? Did you ever win? How do you pick your numbers? At least once a month a tried to play a lotto, wishing that I could win the jackpot prize if not maybe the consolation prizes. I have 3 sets of numbers but sometimes I just randomly selecting numbers.

I don't buy lotteries. But my uncle do. He used to buy lotteries regularly. But not now. Lottery has been banned in our place for more than 3 or 4 years i guess. Before that my uncle used to buy lotteries every week hoping he will win a big amount one day. Later he realised that it will happen only in his dream. He is very sad that the government has banned lotteries in our area. However he did win some cash prizes upto RS. 10000 about 7 or 8 times.

Feel sad for your uncle but at least before the government decided to banned the lottery, he already experienced to won some cash prizes. Maybe someday the government might bring it back. ^_^

Yes, I play lotto as frequent as I can. Before I have sets of numbers which is the birthdays of each member of the family, but I feel that it is not the right combination so I switch on lucky pick. We wouldn't know when will be our lucky day and I don't want to loose such opportunity.

Like what I have said, I have 3 sets of numbers... 1st set are the important numbers or dates for us(my bf), 2nd set our birthdays, 3rd set combination of different important dates in my life. Then, sometimes I also choose another box wherein I will just choose the lucky pick. Well, we will know when will be our lucky day! :D

Once in a while, I do play lottery games. Have I won ? Yes, I have, but small prizes. My luck has not showed up yet ! Ha ha ! Most of the time, I just take the "quick pick" numbers, because I believe this is all just a matter of luck.

I think I have bought lottery ticket maybe 2 or 3 times ever and didn't hit a dime of course, I just cna't imagine I could be one of those super lucky person to big and become a millionaire. I buy scratch ticket every once in a while and have hit little, the most I have ever won with the scratch ticket was 100 dollars, that was like a dream.

100 dollars is great! Not everybody could win that, right! You are still lucky!

I don't play the lottery very often. When I do play, I typically play the instant tickets. I feel like my chances of winning are so much better with those! I haven't actually played even those instant tickets in over a year though. Just haven't had the extra money to spend.

It is much better rather than taking your chance but then you will sacrifice. ^_^

I actually don't like this kind of games, you have no chances to play rationally and it's all based on luck. At the end of the month you realize that you spent money for nothing since the chances of winning are 1 on billions...Nah, it's not for me; i'd rather spend my money gambling at poker, at least i could win thanks to my skills ;)

Well, for me I just play when I have an extra money and I do not want also to be addictive on it. Yeah, right! Its a game of chance and luck!

I don't play them anymore simply because it was so long since I had won anything, I thought I would be better off by saving the money and then I could use it rather than just waste it on hope.

Lottery is purely chances, you shouldn't play the lottery if u cringe at the fact of losing money, the chances of making money back (making a profit) on lottery is virtually none, i suggest you look Into online casinos if your Interested on Making money through luck, cuz when your playing poker you atleast have the factor of bidding smartly, consider the lottery the worst bid, every hand
