Don't invest a lot in it at once, because this is a wrong approach to lottery. Just buy one ticket from time to time, and maybe, in the case of extreme luck, you will win big. Buying more tickets in order to increase your chances of winning is a mistake some people do, because with a thousand tickets bought, your chance of winning is still less than 0.01%, which is extremely small.

Lol, but still it increases the chance though xD I would prefer to buy more tickets for a single lottery than buying many times one ticket. Buy with all I have, lose, and never try it again for a year or decade lel Cheesy

Looks like you are joking, but, actually, losing all one's money is not a joke. As I said, your chances of winning still going to be extremely small, so it's a question of losing $2 or losing $2,000 instead. You will forget about losing $2 in an hour, but you will be remembering losing $2k for many years, regretting the decision you made. Now, what kind of life would you choose, the one filled with regret or the one filled with hope with any new ticket bought?

Oh I believe there are a lot of people who are getting addicted in lottery, just in a different way than the casino addiction.

I think I know the reason.

In our country, it is because of the people being persistent.

I don't know their basis but all I know is that they want to bet their numbers, maybe it is a number symbolizing the birthday of their child, partner maybe sibling, and they keep that for days. Miraculously, some won consolations like winning 2 numbers out of 3 and some won the main prize. That is the reason, I think they are addicted.

Because when you bet in lottery, there is no addiction and  a lot of stress to be involved. The chances may be slim to be able to hit the lucky numbers but at least you are not going to lose or sell everything that you have unlike what happens when you have gambling problems in traditional casinos. I also believe that if a huge money is meant to be yours then you will receive it.

Oh I believe there are a lot of people who are getting addicted in lottery, just in a different way than the casino addiction.

For example in a casino, you might lose a few games and then decide to keep playing until you lose everything or get back what you lost... that's an addiction.
In lottery you keep playing for years, losing a few money constantly.

The results might be the same in the end... though your chances of wining in casino can be higher if you play a game which includes skills.

You don't have to put a lot to wager in lottery but you can get the highest pay once you win. Its not that easy to win, matter of fact I haven't won anything from lottery myself.  The only reason I would probably play lottery is if the casino allows you to pick a lottery ticket for every bet you do in their casino. Its like playing Slot machine in EOSBET.io which gives anyone a chance to win $10K for every dice roll you make.

There are also promotions, bonuses that may attract some gamblers . Just lile you, I prefer crypto gambling than the lottery. Just thinking that millions of people are betting in a lottery and only one will gonna win. Unlike playing in an online gambling like dice games, roulette, crash. There is still high chance of winning than that of the lottery.

The thing is that in roulette max you can win is 35x, and it's 9900x in dice and crash, while with lottery you can win million times of your invested amount. That's why it is so popular. If you enjoy the very process of gambling than lottery is hardly the best choice for you because there is almost no process. But if you don't want to spend much of your time on it but still have a chance of winning big, than there is nothing better than lottery in this regard.


To be honest, I invested a lot on lottery, imagine putting a bet for last 5 years and the closet I get was winning 4/5 digits, not a good investment.

And I'm thinking if I just play on other games with the money I put in lottery, I could have make thousands of dollars already. That's why I totally stop betting on it already, I guess I'm exhausted and accept my faith that I can't win.

Don't invest a lot in it at once, because this is a wrong approach to lottery. Just buy one ticket from time to time, and maybe, in the case of extreme luck, you will win big.

For me, lottery is not that very addictive and the grand prize is very huge if only one person got the lucky numbers.
I have got some friends who are very interested to try their luck by purchasing lottery tickets. They not only buy online lotteries but also offline lotteries too. Its really interesting to see their temptation during draw date. Hopefully they are slightly addicted in this matter or want to be millionaire with one lucky chance Cheesy.
 
I will also prefer lottery than the classic gambling because in casinos, the bigger you bet then the larger your winnings you could get but in lottery, even the small bets from average people has the same chance as everyone.
Still there is some differences between gambling and lottery. Specially on sports betting professional gamblers use previous data and research a lot before placing their bet which increase the chances of win undoubtedly. You can't do something like this for lottery IMO. Gambler depends on previous data, prediction or possibilities but winning lottery completely depends on luck. 
Its not about luck completely, because the chance of a win in lottery will be affected by the number of tickets you buy, it means that the amount of money you have will affect your chance of winning in the lottery. so the lottery isn't just about luck, the small players in the lottery will only donate prizes to big players, that's what I see. so I like to play other gambling games than play in lottery

For me, lottery is not that very addictive and the grand prize is very huge if only one person got the lucky numbers. But I only do it whenever the grand lotto has already accumulated at least $20m because no one has won the past draw. I will also prefer lottery than the classic gambling because in casinos, the bigger you bet then the larger your winnings you could get but in lottery, even the small bets from average people has the same chance as everyone.

I am not sure about that because the lottery can be addictive for some people who cannot control themselves because they are curious about the prizes. Yes, sometimes people are waiting for the prize accumulated to the bigger prizes, so they don't have to wait for a long time to see the result comes out.

But the chance to win the prize will be the same as the other gambling games which need the luck to win. We could only expect and hope that we can be the winner, but the luck will not always come to us. Sometimes, the small bets can be the winner because the luck can come to any people who deserve the money.

In the lottery itself, people who are not thinking about the prize usually have a bigger chance to win the prizes.

In a lottery in which you pick 6 numbers from a possible pool of 49 numbers, your chances of winning the jackpot (correctly choosing all 6 numbers drawn) are 1 in 13,983,816. That's 1 shot in almost 14 million." in real life and in online I think the chances are a little bit higher.
It is really a life changing gambling game but the chances of it to win is very very close to zero Cheesy.

I don't see any reason why people choose lottery than any games but the one that I know is that it doesn't really need any skills in order to win on it. Its just pure luck only.

The thing with lottery is it is a replay traditional thing and hence many gets the addiction towards lottery due to genetics and inheritance. I would agree that based on math, chances of winning a lottery is astronomically low. But since lottery doesn't carry the same stigma as gambling (I maybe wrong here), that's why people get attracted towards it.

What do you mean by carrying the own stigma as gambling?

I don't know what do you mean but lottery is gambling, right?

The winning chance is low, yet the price pot in there is so high. I think that is also the reason why people are wanting to buy lottery tickets hoping they could get that huge amount of price despite the low chance of winning.

I think we can see the result in the offline lottery directly
yes . on our place . the draws can be seen live on t.v or heard on the radio every single day but i dont know if this was also possible to online lottery

because, in that game, we can know how people will withdraw the prizes.
thats confedential . you wont see people withdrawing or claiming thier prizes because that is too risky especially if the won amount is big  .

lottery games are ok but some just dont like to play with it rather they chose other types of gambling  .
You can apply anything that you love but trust me in lottery people use to win allot I am also like them I bought ticket long ago and now i am winning it. But in lottery there are allot id people are earning from it. I wish  have the same luck again and have money more than anything else. I am planning to buy more lottery this year.

Yes, I believe in you because I have a bad experience in the lottery in the past. I am playing many times in offline lottery games, but that doesn't give me any chance to win. But then I realize that the house will always win and it is very difficult for us to be the winner even if we used so much money unless we have big luck.

If I am playing offline lottery games again, I consider that it is only to kill my time, and I can enjoy the game although I know that the lottery games are only for the entertainment. But I see that some people can make money from the lottery and even they can get a big prize from the house because the lottery games will be the easiest gambling games that people can play.

but if someone insists on playing something without thinking or using skills, then why not buy a random stock?

I doubt that gambling is not done with skills. The people who have taken gambling as profession to earn money and feed their families must have been doing gambling and succeeding because they have involved some level of expertise to be succeeding .
But those are only few compare to all of us here,and we have been in this forum everyday posting in gambling constantly or even in other section but we cannot even seen someone posting admitting to be a professional gambler or feeding he’s family from earning in this gaming became the truth is they are once in a million maybe..that’s why also people tend to bet on Lottery since desperation to win in gambling is really indeed

To be honest, in a lottery online gambling platforms are I always doubting. Because I didn't see how they draw the result and what provably fair they have. The first thing that comes up in my mind is probably they will monitor the result and nobody hit the jackpot until they run and claiming of failure company. I tried how many times and bought tickets in our local lottery gambling but I never win even once, how much more in online gambling.

I still prefer on dice game and poker game rather than lottery gambling which ain't know how many chances of winning we had. Maybe 0.5%  Cheesy
If you gamble in the lottery, then make sure you gamble on gambling sites that are truly trusted with real provably fair and 100% paying. because sometimes we don't know how the site determines the winner of the player, right? moreover the chance to win in the lottery is not determined by luck but from the capital you have.

Also to be surer, you may read on testimonials about that gambling site that you want to participate in. It's just one google away. Not all gambling sites who claimed they're 100% provably fair are indeed provably fair. Yes, we may not be sure of how those sites come out with such results, so reading on other people's experience is the best way to know.
It is all your choice if you think that you should choose gambling with other games you can be good gambler but lottery is also good way to make money but in lottery it’s all about luck while in gambling its 50 percent in your luck. So if you ever find good website to buy lottery you should not lose the chance to buy.
