I haven't done the lottery for years because there are far better betting opportunities around. However, I can still offer a bit of betting advice to those who do play, and that advice is to pick numbers above 31. The reason is this - when selecting numbers, many people go for things like birthdays and house numbers. This means that all birthdays and most house numbers will be 31 or below. The chances of any six completely random numbers being drawn are exactly the same, but seeing as the big prizes are shared equally between winners, you will get a bigger share of the kitty because less people will have the higher numbers in their entry. It doesn't improve your chance of winning, but it does improve your chance of a better payout if you do get lucky.
