Remember that lottery has its purpose especially since that one is run by state, proceeds will be use for the development of the country, so buying a lottery is a way of supporting that mission. Don't expect much, just play for fun ,if you are lucky you will, but it buying more doesn't change your luck.
Actually, we don't have to buy more lottery tickets because it depends on our ability and the money we have. After all, everything comes back to luck, right? People who have a few tickets can even win the lottery, so why should they buy lots of lottery tickets just because it is run by the state? who get taxes from that lottery, but unfortunately in my country it doesn't support gambling and lotteries because it is considered illegal.

Many tickets do not necessarily have many chances because basically games like this only rely on luck without any skills as long as you have enough money, buying a few lottery tickets is more than enough, I once heard a story about my friend winning the lottery and he only had a few tickets there, proving that lots of tickets not much chance of winning either.

It depends to a perspective and status of a person, if they have a means to buy a lot of lottery ticket then it will not be an issue and as a matter of fact, many people are doing that in our country especially those who really loves buying lotto tickets, as in everyday they bought tickets and betting in the same numbers. But for me, even that I have the means to buy many tickets, I choose not to, because it's not practical for me and I believe that if luck is really for me, even if I only bet on one ticket, I will win. I don't need to spend a lot and expect to win.
I also think that if luck favors me, I won't have to buy more tickets. There are many people who believe in lottery tickets and buy a lot of lotteries. I don't know how lucky a man can be if he buys more lotteries. Because the amount of lottery tickets are very high. Also, if a person does not buy a lot of lottery tickets, he will not get the guaranteed winning ticket. As a result, he may face a big loss. But depending on luck if someone buys a lottery then he should not have any personal problem but he can buy lottery regularly. I think one should not take big risk by buying more lotteries.

Nope, the highest number of combinations I purchased is 3 because I believe if it's for me, it will be for me. It's like, I'm living it all to fate. I'm not gonna spend more money to make my winning chance better. At the end of the day, the probability is very low. So it's better to leave it to fate and luck.

With that hope, there are people who's willing to buy more ticket to enhance their chance to win the jackpot, not going to blame them from how they see the opportunity and beside it's their money that they are spending, personally, I only spend some spare when I got hooked with the pot prize, who knows luck might be somewhere, but unfortunately, never happen yet.

In a financial aspects, it is more practical to use your money to other things that may give you some growth instead of aiming for luck and hope for a big returned with a huge risk behind.
Some people are willing to buy more tickets to increase their chances of winning their lottery ticket. They think having lots of lottery tickets will give them a chance but it all still depends on their luck in winning the lottery. Those who already know that the lottery requires luck will only buy a few tickets because that doesn't guarantee we can win. We can buy many tickets occasionally if we have extra money that we don't use for anything.

That is why we have to really allocate the money we have and not be easily tempted by the opportunity to win a gambling game, especially if the gambling game is based on luck. Rarely can people win luck-based gambling games despite having more tickets than others.

Here in Brazil, this year we had the biggest prize in history in the country's main lottery. This certainly motivates many people to bet, and I was also one of them, as I bet much more than I should have, and I didn't win anything Tongue

However, here the main difference and motivator for betting is not so much the amount drawn, but rather because the last lottery of the year is special... the prize does not accumulate, that is, there must be a winner. This means that if no one wins with the 6 dozens drawn, then the prize goes to whoever got just five right.
Then the chances increase.

But this year, 5 people managed to get all 6 draws right and I only got 3 right in a "pool" (collective bet) of more than 2000 bets.

I'm very unlucky!
Excellent explanation @alegotardo! The same happened to me lol

I also bet a significant amount of money with the intention of winning some money at the end of 2023 in the "Mega Sena da Virada" but unfortunately I didn't win anything either lol
Several other family members also bet... and my friends too, including collective bets ("pools") that reached around 1000 to 1500 bettors, but still no one won!
Well, I believe this is not a good way to start the year... let's see if we have better luck in the next bets during the year lol

Buying more as long as you can afford to throw that money is fine. However, if you are buying more and you try to believe that it will help you increase your chances of winning more, that's a wrong perception. They say that buying lottery ticket is just like flushing money to the toilet, so we should never consider to take it as a serious business.

Remember that lottery has its purpose especially since that one is run by state, proceeds will be use for the development of the country, so buying a lottery is a way of supporting that mission. Don't expect much, just play for fun ,if you are lucky you will, but it buying more doesn't change your luck.

Yes, nothing has changed if you have multiple tickets or one, I know that the government controls that, they just choose whether they will give that money to people or they will also win that much. That's my belief, everything is controlled by the government. With so many people buying tickets, no one wins and the prize reaches millions because no one wins yet wtf, when the prize is big, someone will win and for sure it will be the government.
Actually it does have that change mathematically on which the higher the number of tickets that you do have then it would be just understandable that you do have more chances of winning.
The main question is, how big is that winning chance? Basing up on lottery odds or chance then it wont really be that a significant change. So its up really to you whether
you would be purchasing more tickets or not. It would really be that basing up into your own preference since its your money to be used then it would be your own call whether
you would really be that buying more or would really be sticking into one. The important thing on here is that you should only spend on the funds that you can afford to
lose as always. Dont be that too optimistic on things specially on hitting the jackpot. It would really be just making you desperate. Promise!

No, I don't really buy more ticket when it comes to lotto since it is hard to come up with different combinations and I think it is just a waste of money.
But if it is on raffles with a fixed amount of ticket then yes, I could spend or buy more to increase my chance of winning.

Just for an update about this lottery drawing, it has not yet hit, so there, is an additional 14 million pesos or $251k, total pot is now $10,561,610.05 we'll see if the winner of this lottery bought more tickets or just relied on one ticket, I bought 2 tickets today, unfortunately, I did not hit any number  Sad I'll update this thread on Saturday if there's a hit.

How about you as a Lotto bettor do you buy more tickets when the prize skyrocketed and how many more tickets are you adding

I’m not buying more tickets because what difference it can make to increase my winning chance rate. Winning a lottery is much harder than being struck by a lightning twice. It’s game of hard core luck and the only time buying more tickets to increase winning chance rate make sense is when you are pouring out tons of money until you cover at least 70% above winning chance rate.

Buying a single ticket is enough for me to enjoy this game. This is PCSO which means we have same country. BTW I bet on all of those draw with huge jackpot but failed to even hit 3 digits above on my tickets.
Lottery is totally based on luck so if you are lucky then 1 ticket is enough for you to win.  But if you are unlucky, even a thousand tickets won't win you.  So I don't think buying multiple tickets is a good decision.  I never buy more than 1 ticket.  I don't know what others think but this is what I think in my thoughts. Not 3 ticket numbers If you have even 1 number wrong you can't win the lottery so you can't guarantee it if you buy more than one ticket you can win the lottery

It depends to a perspective and status of a person, if they have a means to buy a lot of lottery ticket then it will not be an issue and as a matter of fact, many people are doing that in our country especially those who really loves buying lotto tickets, as in everyday they bought tickets and betting in the same numbers. But for me, even that I have the means to buy many tickets, I choose not to, because it's not practical for me and I believe that if luck is really for me, even if I only bet on one ticket, I will win. I don't need to spend a lot and expect to win.
That means we have to look at how much money we have and refrain from using the money we have prepared for daily expenses because that will create an imbalance in our finances. But most people will immediately buy lottery tickets in large quantities, seeing huge prize money waiting for the winner. I also won't buy many tickets even though I have a lot of money because that doesn't guarantee I can win, and I should allocate the money for other, more important needs. Buying lottery tickets can make someone go beyond their limits because the ticket prices are cheap and we can buy them repeatedly with a lot of money. But we still depend on luck to win.

With that hope, there are people who's willing to buy more ticket to enhance their chance to win the jackpot, not going to blame them from how they see the opportunity and beside it's their money that they are spending, personally, I only spend some spare when I got hooked with the pot prize, who knows luck might be somewhere, but unfortunately, never happen yet.

I don't request loans~
I've done it a couple of times before when I was new to lottery. Sadly it brought about zero changes so I just gave up on trying to win (though I do every now and then buy two or three more tickets) and just spent the rest of whatever I planned to spend with scratch tickets since they give out immediate gratification, which is kind of addictive tbh but hey, it is what it is. It also doesn't help how my family buys tickets rather often as well so I just think of those tickets as my "multiples" really.

Lottery ticket is cheap and I think everyone can afford it. And we all know that this is luck base game so maybe others will just go and buy a single ticket and hope that they will win the lottery just like that. Or there could be really willing to gamble big amount of money, and even if they know that the odds are stack against them, they will go and try to take that risk to even gamble let's say $1k to get multiple tickets.

I agree though with your mindset and so with the others, we can just buy and bet one ticket and the possibility to win is there. And so no need for us to spend money, all we need is luck.

Yes, it wont really be that an issue if you are really that willing  to spend and to lose all the money that you had thrown out on purchasing tickets. Literally speaking when it comes to math about the odds on winning then
having more tickets will really be increasing your odds on hitting up the jackpot but if we do really tend to zoom out and look at on the bigger picture on how it do looks like on which you would really be able to realize
that it was never been that nearly possible for you to hit up those combinations or simply it is really just that close to impossible.This is why on the time that you do make out some dealing with those lotteries
then it would be better that you shouldnt really be that making yourself that too optimistic when it comes to things.

Why? you would really be just that basically making yourself that being impulsive or simply being that too desperate on which it would really be causing for you to purchase even more tickets.
If you can be able to afford on spending with those tickets then it should be just fine but if you are already compromising your family budget then this is something
that you should really be looking upon because its never been that worth on doing so or would be proceeding on the things that you've been doing.

How about you as a Lotto bettor do you buy more tickets when the prize skyrocketed and how many more tickets are you adding


Since I am someone who usually buys more than one ticket for lottery draws I chose my answer in the survey as "Yes". Although every ticket in the lottery draw has a one-time chance of hitting the jackpot or one of the prizes I think I increased this probability by purchasing a few tickets but I don't forget the fact that this is only a factor that increases the winning possibility. Of course, since some lottery draws offer options such as quarter, half and full tickets, I never buy two or four half or quarter tickets with the same number or series of numbers.

My personal opinion is that purchasing more than one lottery ticket increases the potential winning chances because in a lottery with a total number of 1,000 tickets the probability of each ticket winning a prize will be 1/1,000. In other words, purchasing 5 tickets will help increase the probability of winning a prize but with plain logic this rate should be considered as 1/1000 for each ticket not 5/1,000.

If you increase your tickets every time you bet, then better do it consistently and in huge volumes. As you said, winning the lottery has a low probability due to the insanely high number of combinations that can be formed off of it. You're bound to lose money in the long run unless RNGesus blesses you with luck. It's a game of chances, and those chances are always stacked against the bettor.

I tried betting on the lottery and the best that I got is 4 numbers right, and even that has a very low prize compared to the jackpot. I think I only won an amount equivalent to $30 which is a huge gain from my bet but never really something considering the amount I have spent on the lottery over time.

This is lotto and having more tickets can increase your chance of winning and many are doing this, consistently.
Personally, I'm not into lottery though I bet sometimes but it will always depend on my budget. Betting in lotto in my place is not that expensive though that's why the ordinary people are into lottery, and they are taking this seriously like they are expecting to won the jackpot and get out of the poverty life. The probability is high, so better to pray for more luck when you are betting.
