Common game and ticket mistakes people make while playing the lottery

Playing the lottery

Every lottery player takes part in a lottery game for the sole purpose of winning. However, as we know, not everyone successfully manages to fulfill the universal dream of scooping the lottery jackpot. This means that there are probably more disappointed lottery player than there are jackpot winners.

The above brings us to literally the ‘One Million Dollar’ question, what should lottery players do to win the lottery? For ages this question has been troubling many lottery players, but fortunately someone or some people decided to sit down on the issue. Below are the common mistakes that can be detrimental to your jackpot winning chances.

Playing the Lottery on the wrong day

You may ask, who does purchasing your lottery ticket on a certain day affect your winning chances? This is a complex question with no straight answer as you have to derive the response to logic. Any day that has a lotto draw is ‘special’ to lottery players. However, there are some days of the weeks that give players ample time for them to purchase lottery tickets.

For example a lotto game such as the UK National lotto has its drawing days on each Wednesday and Saturday. Saturday being a weekend will give players ample time to purchase lottery tickets compared to Wednesday. To cut down on the competition, lottery players should purchase lottery tickets more on the weekdays rather than the weekend days.

Players failing to play enough lines

Playing few lines on your lottery tickets can be detrimental to your chances of winning. Each line dictates your odds of walking home with the jackpot prize and hence the more the lines played  the better. Play as many numbers of line as you can afford. If you afford it, maintain a number of lines above three.

Being Impatient

Some lottery players view playing the lottery as a form of investment rather than letting luck take its cause. Being  desperate for a jackpot win isn’t the way to go for any lottery player with the desire. Instill a culture whereby you are playing the lottery for the sheer fun and if the millions will come to you afterwards, they will be a way of the lottery game saying ‘thanks’ to you.
