how to win £125 million

[TheHogwartsBEngO]

Any good ways to choose your euromillions tickets?

tempted by a string of numbers that may be familiar to fans of "Lost"...

Try lucky dips at the til, they stand as much chance as any of winning, and if they don't you can blame the person at the til.

I'm distrusting of lucky dips - you have a 76,000,000 chance of the till giving you those numbers and then a further 1:76000000 chance of the same numbers coming up on the draw.

Yes. yes, I know mathematically there is the same chance of your LD numbers coming up as any other combination, but somehow it just feels like doubling the odds.

you have to be doubly lucky for the both the till and the lottery machine giving the same nos.

Put the pound in a bank. Simple. If you have £100 buy a premium bond. It is still gambling but at the end of the day you still have £100!

Standards!

Bigger Prize

Although not a better chance of winning if you use numbers at the higher end of the scale (over 31) if you are spawny enough to win then the prize is less likely to be shared as you've got rid of all those grannies using their favourite grandkids birthdays..

I did read somewhere that a disproportionate number of tickets have the combination 1,2,3,4,5,6. People think they have less chance of sharing with these too, but of course lots of people think the same way.

Probably true of the anti-birthdays method.
