The lottery is very popular here in our country you can find lotto outlets in almost every corner of our city, and there's always a long line whenever the top prize balloons I frequently bet in a lottery but every time I bet I just mark the LP sign in a lotto form which means Lucky Pick that is the machine will be the one to pick the numbers for you.
My reason is I don't want to have attachments on numbers that I'm going to bet because it will make me a lotto betting addict, some bettors keep their favorite numbers to bet and they make sure that they bet on it daily in fear that it will come out when they failed to make a bet.
In your country do you have this LP lucky pick feature in the lotto form and do you choose LP to make a bet for you or are you keeping numbers to bet, what are your reasons, and what's your success rate?
I heard about the random numbers you can get on your lottery ticket, but how do we know they are actually random? I would always be a bit scared that the same kind of numbers are given to a large number of people and if those numbers would win, then they payout would be very small for each ticket. So far I haven't met anybody that uses given numbers by other people, it doesn't really if the numbers are randomly generated by a computer, or just written down on a piece of paper by a stranger. Some friends that I know believe in lucky numbers and they will always pick the exact same numbers for their lottery ticket, even though they never won any big amounts with it. For me, I prefer to chose random numbers myself. It only takes a few seconds to choose the lottery numbers and if I put my own random numbers in I am not at risk to have the exact some numbers as a lot of other people. Overall my success in lottery is very bad, I never won anything big and spend years playing it. I don't really want to calculate how much money I spend on lottery tickets over the years, but it's definitely a lot of, maybe one day it's going to pay off.
We rarely consider the algorithms behind
random decisions. Yes, but how do we know they're random? Complex algorithms are used in most lottery systems to be unpredictable. Shared numbers can split jackpots, so worry is justified. Statistically, that's unlikely yet feasible. Ironically, while chasing unpredictability, we may unwittingly enter a pattern. Your random number selection method is intriguing! It personalizes the gamble, right? Randomness is tough, whether a machine or human brain picks the numbers.
Your pals believe in lucky numbers. Common practice, right? Even in chance games, humans like patterns and predictability. However, consider this: Does their devotion to those numbers change the odds? Not really. Draws are autonomous. Though self-developed, your approach faces the same odds. Thinking about the money wasted is sobering. Following this dream can be costly. However, 'what if' keeps us playing. Perhaps it's the excitement of possibilities, not just victory. Is the actual jackpot the exhilaration and optimism each ticket offers, however brief?
