- Start date
If you are talking about random lottery picks then no strategy or tactics will increase your chances of winning.Are you looking for ways to increase your odds of winning (all would be mathematically unsound except for purchasing more tickets) or are you just wanting sites that promote that such increases in odds are possible?I must say You can increase the odds of not having to share if you do win by choosing numbers that other people don't...this doesn't increase your odds of winning...it increases the odds of not sharing.here is a link <<< link removed >>>

True, you can play good odds with no game analysis. Box bets or "straight/box" split bets are the best way to go for better odds.
1) You could try playin a Trio of Random Unmatched Pick3 Picks ifya don't want to play the 27% side with doubles.
2) You could simply choose 4, 5 or 6 digits and use one of my Pick3 Box Wheels:

3) a Two-Thirds Box wheel on 4 to 10 digits is another option. Can play all 10 digits 0 to 9 in any order, resulting in only 17 picks...offering box match 2 bases...just a matter of luck boxin the remaining digit into the right pick. You'll have one or more picks with 2 of the draw digits boxed, then the odds to match the rest are only "1 in 10" to box the remaining digit. Actually, it is "1 in 8" since the Two-Thirds box currently excludes doubles.
4) You could play 10 picks with 0 to 9 down the first column to guarantee that you have the 1st digit. That will leave you with one "1 in 100" chance of boxing the 2 trailing digits. Personally, I'd rather bet $7 more to get a pick with "1 in 8" odds of boxing...assuming of course that doubles aren't drawn.
cheers!

this is pick3, easy to at least get boxed side of a bet.
on the big lottery games however, I agree, that is why I very very rarely play those...no fun just winning a free-replay or chump change of $12 or $14 or whatever.
on pick3 however, I've won anywhere from $32 to $429 off "straight/box" split bets.

You can approach these games from a statistical point of view with a little bit of intuition thrown in. That's about the only way I can describe it. USA Today had an article recently about professional poker players. It's the difference between gamblers and gamers. I think you want to be a gamer, and when things don't look too good you back off and when the stats look favorable you go all in. And you break down how much you're going to spend; it's called money management and it's a subject the pros talk about.
When I cashed in my ticket at the liquor store this week some guy behind me asked if I did Quick Pick. Uh, no. Now that's a 0.00% win, if you ask me.
One of the things I've proven to myself is that I make lists of bets that are larger than I can afford. I play on paper for entertainment's sake. I can't keep up that level of betting, but I see what strategies might work at a given time, and I gauge the payoff vs. how long I would have had to let those sets ride before they paid off.
