The outcome of most games of chance, particularly lotteries and slot machines, is completely random. You cannot influence it, no matter what you do. For lotteries, that means that betting the same numbers each week won’t help you win any more than betting different numbers. The odds of winning LOTTO 6/49, for example, are 1 in 14 million each time you play: It doesn’t matter how many people have purchased tickets or what numbers you play – the odds remain the same.
