Personally, I do not see the point of playing the lottery because to win in this game of chance is almost unrealistic - the chances are too low. Without winning I do not enjoy gambling, so it is not for me. I'd rather play poker, slots or bet in a bookmaker's office. For me it is more usual gambling, which is more likely to bring pleasure.

For people like you and me is why there are casinos that offer tickets for free for those gamblers who manage to accumulate enough wager each period of time. I have personally managed to accumulated two tickets for Stake's weekly give away. So you can have a chance to earn a lottery while you play dices, blackjack or any other game you personally enjoy.  Wink
The number of tickers per player does not have limit as far as I remember.

Unfortunately, my two tickets were not enough to win, perhaps, you could.
Ill leave the link towards the giveaway and the Terms of it here, in case you are interested.  Smiley

I just take part in our local lottery but not too often. It might sound weird but I only bet when I feel lucky with my number combination but unfortunately, I haven't won on it in my entire life even once. I'm just doing it for fun. There were lucky people in our community who often win in the lottery. I could probably say that winning in lotteries really works by luck. The chances of winning here are too small so it's hard to expect good winnings.

Oh, lotteries, baby! The primo gamble-a-rama. It's like chucking your wildest dreams into a bitty orb and giving it a roll down the slope, crossing your fingers it nails the sweet spot. Sure, snagging that jackpot ain't a walk in the park, but we just can't quit flirting with Lady Luck.

Hitting up online lotteries is like being a digital Indiana Jones, dude. No clue what's in store, but you're stoked to poke around and see where the trek leads. And hey, maybe one day you'll strike gold and land that millionaire title!

But picture this, what if I whispered that you could partake in a lottery sans any cash outlay? Yup, it's like getting your mitts on a complimentary golden ticket to the high-stakes game of fate. I don't know about you, but I'd leap at that opportunity even if it was raining rhinos. So let's keep our keen gazes trained for those no-cost lottery slips, buddy!

Of course, it's a windfall if you win, but I would rather invest that money is some other things or worst, gamble it away in sports betting or have fun playing in slot games.
Yeah, I think there's no fun when I buy ticket for lottery, we will see we're win or not in the end of the event and we're not get any fun during buy the ticket. It's different if we gamble on sport where we can watch the match and discuss about it, bet on slot games we will feel excited with the music and every bet we spin.

Aside from lottery in Freebitco.in, I don't think there's a casino which successful with their lottery.
i haven't heard of any successful casinos that offers free tickets other than freebitco though. people do no typically play on those game coz aside from there are so many competitors, they feel like it isn't worth to spend money on those things. there was even a meme saying that, the chances of winning is much lower than you getting accident, though it isn't very convincing but yeah, i have greater luck on playing slots than winning lottery so i'll choose slots over lottery if have to spend money on gambling.

On one hand I think that only fools play the lottery, but on the other, you can't win if you don't play.  I used to get in to big state lotteries when it would get up in to the hundreds of millions or over a billion dollars during a work "pool", where say 10 of us at work would pool our money to buy as many tickets as we decided and if any of the numbers hit we would of course split that.  Since we had a better chance at winning that way, I would play...but I don't think I've ever played just by myself.  I feel the same for lotto tickets.  I'd rather spend $1-5 on some shitcoin that might pump over wasting my money on a lotto ticket that has a .00001% chance of hitting even a decent win.
You are probably right that the probability of winning a lottery is basically too low unless you buy a lot of tickets and manage to get some percentage of the total sold tickets, that might give you some chances of winning but that might not even be worth it since you've already spent a lot of money on it and since your spent money doesn't cover a very high percentage, the chances are you will lose the money more than to win a prize.

So it's definitely not a good practice to spend a lot of money on lotteries where your chances of winning are too low, but some people just always tend to believe in trying their luck in almost everything, I personally wouldn't mind participating but only if I'm getting free tickets some way, lol.

I take part in lotteries but I usually do not make a lot of hope to win a lottery. Participating n the lottery is the easiest thing but getting a win out of it may be the most difficult thing. By the way, its fun participating in online lotteries.

Of course, if you take part in a lottery, you would track its progress and the result. Although i do not think that i am too lucky to win a lottery but still I keep looking for the results and see if any day i would win something big.

What if, I get a chance to participate in a lottery without any investment?
If any gambling site offers, free of cost entry in the lottery, i would definitely not miss that one. Smiley

I myself have seen people in my village get lottery prizes and the prizes are big enough that they can get $ 2000 from the $ 2 they invest in the dealer. But it's true that the chances of winning are under five percent and even less than that for winning from lottery gambling.
The interesting thing that happens in the field in this gambling is that many people believe that they will get numbers that will come out of their dreams and do lottery gambling after they get that dream, I heard that it makes people like crazy, lol. But indeed there are some people who are successful with that method but don't get maximum wins.
I think I'd like it too if it was free .lol

I understand why some people turn to the lottery as a way to try to recoup their losses, but I personally don't see the appeal of the lottery. The odds are just too slim to justify spending money on tickets. I'd rather focus on other forms of gambling where I have a better chance of winning, even if the potential payout might not be as great, or just save my money and invest it in something with a better return on investment. It's all a matter of gambler's personal preference.

As for free lottery tickets, of course, who doesn't love them? It's like a little gift that gives you a chance to try your luck without having to spend any money. But they should never be seen as a way to recover losses from other forms of gambling.
I think the difference is that you do not gamble a lot, and you have to wait for it as well. It is not there to recoup losses, but it has cheap tickets usually and it means that you get to gamble anyway you would like to and that's a good thing. I personally feel like spending 500 satoshi on some tickets and waiting for a week is a good deal, you do not gamble more and all you lose is 500 satoshi which is nothing and you can do that only a week later so you have time.

In other games, you can keep on gambling one after the other and can lose so much so quickly, here you do not at least have that. So, this is a "side bet" that you have and not the main course but it is better to have some tickets just in case if a miracle happens and you win.

If there is a vote here then for sure "No" will be the winner as majority hasn't joined or take part on any gambling or crypto based lotteries. It's the odd that this the major key here, I mean you really need to be extremely lucky to hit 5/6 or even 6/6 of the digits.

Of course, it's a windfall if you win, but I would rather invest that money is some other things or worst, gamble it away in sports betting or have fun playing in slot games.

If I can remember I don't directly participated in the gambling lotteries but I unknowingly participated on it, there is this gambling site that whenever you wager around $20 you would get 1 ticket meaning one slot on the lottery and the more you play, the more you wager and it means the more tickets you will have but just imagine competing with the players with a budget of a thousand and sometimes million, but still that was a good one as even if I don't literally participate in the lottery I am receiving tickets for free.

   -    I have not tried the online lottery, but I have experienced the physical lottery by betting on it several times, so I stopped because in my mind it is not right to rely on the lottery because of our desire to get rich.

But I learned to gamble online here in crypto lol, hehe... Regardless of what you say, I will do the same as you do of course.

The odd of winning a lottery is always so hard. And I don't know why, I feel like it's rigged.
Imagining you can win in a lottery is like finding a needle in a haystack, so that's why you can think it's rigged.

I think lottery can be good if there's a limit of the player to participate, so we're know there are only 100 participants, so the winning chance for each people is 1% (still little though lol). You shouldn't think if you participated in 100 lotteries you will at least win once time, it's wrong because you might not win even though you have joined for 500-1000 times due to your bad luck.

The odd of winning a lottery is always so hard. And I don't know why, I feel like it's rigged. Maybe because I have never won any lotteries. To participate it, you just need a very small amount of money and in return, if you win, you get a huge reward. $10/15 or less coming from a single person is not a massive deal. But when you do the math on how many people are joining in, it will really shock you. Imagine thousands of people joining here. How much money will they gain and how much is the price for winning.
This is why I try to stay away from lotteries.
the lottery is a type of gambling where the chance of luck is almost very slim to be able to win the lottery and some people who still bet on this lottery only want to take some of their luck. because luck is the main factor in gambling and in the lottery you don't need big money to win or get lucky.

but from this statement some people are very skeptical of the lottery for reasons such as seeking luck among the many million people who take part in the lottery gambling. so risking money in the lottery is like a waste and a waste of time.
and I myself also very rarely buy tickets in this lottery because it's better to seek luck at other types of bets that have more potential for luck.

As a gambler I am not attracted too much to lotteries as they are a very passive game, you need to wait for many weeks before the results are revealed  and many times I end up forgetting I bought a lottery ticket and as such there is no excitement at all when I make a search to see if I won anything, plus the chances to win are so low that this diminishes my enthusiasm even further, however despite all its flaws I do buy some lottery tickets once in a while.
Some people don't like waiting for the results to be revealed; maybe many of them forget about it.
And when they go back to check, they don't find their name or number on the notice board but that doesn't stop them from buying another lottery ticket and hoping to win it one day.
Some people have been doing it for several years and still consistently buy that lottery ticket even though they haven't had the chance to win.
Well, maybe he was doing it for fun and to try his luck.

There are many types of lottery in the gambling industry, which one you are referring to? Is it a lottery where you pay for each lottery ticket with fixed price   such as powerball, or lottery where you earn the ticket by wagering in a casino such as the one in Stake or something else?

For sure he is referring to buying a ticket as for the other one is just you get it for free when having a specific bet. In buying a lottery ticket you could say that it is intentional as you bought it and hoping to win , the other one is that you just treat it as a freebie and sometimes you dont care on it as you already concluded that you have no chance to win it. But again whether what is it still it is a lottery and we are pleased to join it

Do you take Part in Gambling Lotteries ?

Yes, every now and then.

I take part in lotteries but I usually do not make a lot of hope to win a lottery.

The same thing happens to me. Playing in the lottery makes no sense from a mathematical point of view. It would only make sense when the accumulated jackpot brings a positive expected value to what you are going to bet. But that's not the sense that playing the lottery usually makes. The interesting thing is to be able to win a very high amount for a couple of bucks, even if the probability is derisory and it is EV-. In the same way, when there is a jackpot and it is EV+, the jackpot prizes are usually accumulated in the first or the first prizes, which have a very low probability of winning, so what is relevant is not so much if it is EV+ or EV- as it happens with gambling in casinos, but the possibility that it changes your life, even if it is close to zero.
