You Don’t Need Luck to Play the Irish Lottery

When you play the Irish lottery online, you don’t need luck but it certainly may help if you believe in it. What you really need is the skills to select the numbers that have the best chance of providing you with the winning combination to win the jackpot. While there is no exact science to winning there is a few ways to increase your odds of winning.

Playing a syndicate provides you with more opportunities to win for the same cost as buying a single ticket for yourself. The down side, if there really is one, is that you will share the winning jackpot with 99 other players. Still not a bad option when you think about it.

Other strategies that don’t require luck include:

• Stay strong – play your numbers even when it doesn’t appear they will win. The worst feeling happens when you don’t play your numbers and they finally come in without you!
• Play less often – if you don’t have specific numbers you like to play, then play less but purchase more options
• Most people choose number that coincide with birthdays – that means more people are choosing numbers between 1 and 31. Stay away from those numbers. It won’t increase odds of an actual win but it will increase your odds of not sharing the jackpot.
• If you are playing a jackpot with 5 numbers needed to win and where the numbers go up to 55, the total of your numbers should be between 104 and 176. It appears that 70% of all lottery jackpots have sums that fall within that range. Pretty interesting statistic.

While I stated previously that none of these are sure bets, they can however increase your overall odds of winning that life changing jackpot. That’s what its all about anyway. Taking a chance on winning an amount of money that will change your life forever. That one shot at instant gratification. The opportunity to live out your dreams and make all of your fantasies come true. But where does luck come into play or does it? No one knows for sure but sometimes we want to have that little extra edge. The belief that there is something that puts us before any others in our quest to win one of the huge lottery jackpots. Whether you believe in or use luck to your advantage, play the game and go check your Irish lottery results online.
