你的彩票号码每个星期都是相同的吗？对于所有彩民来说，这是一个有趣的问题。

　　每周是否有更好的彩票号码？或你得到一个更好的机会，然后在一周内改变彩票的号码？我们都知道，有些人有自己喜爱的号码，生日，结婚日，等等等等，而这些人们希望使用这些号码去购买彩票号码。这样的做法是否有所作为？

　　其实，在获奖方面，它不会改变您的概率，无论你时改变你的彩票号码或者坚持你的彩票号码。这个有点像轮盘赌博。正如轮盘没有记忆，所以彩票没有记忆。如果今天的6个号码有相同的概率，这些确切的6个号码（任何其他组合）将在下周出现。

　　“啊哈！”我听到你说的。那么，为什么你从来没有看到连续2个结果相同的彩票呢？嗯，这是因为有很多的数字组合。你最终会看到这种情况发生，从理论上来说，但可能你早已离我们远去，甚至太阳系也可能已经毁灭。

　　在轮盘赌博上，有少的组合（如红色/黑色），你常常可以看到连续事件相同的结果。

　　我们的意思是，每星期坚持改变你的号码。如果你想用你喜欢的号码撞运气，那就始终保持相同的号码。因为如果你从一个方法切换到另一个，你会觉得别扭或心里不踏实。坚持您喜欢的“数字”，如果你希望玩幸运的另一方面。在每年的彩票中，有很多奖金无人认领，所以，如果您的号码中奖了，检查一下您的沙发后面，也许奖券就躺在那里。我要告诉你，坚持一个彩票号码不变，可以抑制你财富梦想的膨胀。你可以不需要长久的为买什么彩票号码而感到心烦。

　　Do You Play The Same Lottery Numbers Every Week Or Different?

　　Here?s an interesting connundrum for all you lottery players, and a question that keeps being thrown back at us. Is it better to play the same lottery numbers every week, or do you stand a better chance if you change them week in week out? We all know that some people have their favourite numbers based on birthdays, wedding days, etc etc. And some prople just go for the “Lucky Dip”。 Does it make a difference mathmatically?

　　Well, in terms of winning, it doesn?t alter your probability one iota if you change your numbers. It?s a bit like a roulette wheel （which we try and explain until we are blue in the face）。 Just as a roulette wheel has no memory, so the lottery has no memory. If 6 numbers come up today, there is the same probability that those exact 6 numbers （as any other combination） will come up next week.

　　“Aha!” I hear you say. So why do you never see 2 consecutive results the same in the lottery? Well, that?s because there are so many combinations of numbers. You will eventually see this happen, （theoretically）， but by then you?l be long gone （and probably the solar system would have blown up as well）。

　　If there are less combinations （such as red/black） in roulette, you often see the same result on consecutive events.

　　The only thing we would say, is that whatever your method, be consistent. By that we mean, consistently change your numbers every week by playing Lucky Dip, or always keep the same numbers. Because if you switch around from one method to another, you are going to feel sick as a dog if your “numbers” come in. If you play Lucky Dip, on the other hand- you won?t have any “numbers”。 And check behind the sofa for the winning ticket. Do you realise how much money is unclaimed every year in the lottery. Well, I am not even going to tell you, because it depresses me. if you buy a lottery ticket, for gawd?s sake CHECK IT!

　　That?s just made me think. I wonder how many people who play Lucky Dip win? I mean, what is the percentage of Lucky Dip players who win versus “favourite number” players…I think we might just ask The NAtional Lottery to clear up that one. Stay posted!

　　On another note, our poison is actually playing the big jackpot slots online rather than the lottery. OK the payouts are not as huge （but I?d be happy with 6 million Euros on Mega Moolah）。 but the odds are better. （Note I didn?t say the odds were amazing, I just said they were better!）
