Imagine for a moment that a mind that was smart enough to acquire a Ph.D. in mathematics had devised a probability engine that is so powerful it can predict winning lottery numbers. Would you be interested in learning more?

I'm sure that you are just the way I was once and believe that winning the lottery is all about being lucky.

Well I can tell you that while winning the jackpot does require a certain amount of luck it is surprising that people who manipulate the mathematics of choosing lottery numbers seem to be a lot more lucky than everyone else!

Without the foresight of a good mathematical system almost everyone who plays chooses their lottery numbers at random. This includes picking birthdays, significant dates etc.

Unfortunately, when you buy a ticket, or even a dozen tickets, in this manner you have a mere 14 million to one chance of winning the jackpot.

Regardless of how many tickets you buy these odds remain mostly unchanged. So, it's no wonder most people believe that winning on the lottery is a matter of pure, blind luck.

With such a low chance of winning, fourteen million to one, it seems almost pointless to play.

However, these odds only apply to random tickets.

Anyone who realises that the lottery is a game of probabilities and not a game of chance uses a good lottery system - like "wheeling". The wheeling of numbers is often employed by lottery syndicates (because you have to buy multiple tickets).

However, wheeling lets you pick more numbers. You then buy tickets that have ever combination of those numbers thus allowing you a better chance of choosing the winning ones (because you get to choose more numbers).

Wheeling just 7 numbers (instead of the standard 6) costs only £28 a draw yet increases the odds of winning the jackpot from 14 million to 1 to 500,000 to 1!

This is the only reason we are told that syndicates have a better chance of winning and the only reason why they win more often than single players!

Wheeling numbers is a great way to guarantee yourself consistent wins on the lottery.

However, although this is the most known of all the reliable lotto systems it is far from the best!
