LuckSmith.com provided CNN Live Today with some basic strategies and suggestions for improving chances to win prizes in a Powerball drawing. Following is a summary of that information:
This information is provided for entertainment purposes only, and does not in any way guarantee you winning a prize.
There are only 2 Guarantees in lottery games
- If you don't buy a ticket, you're guaranteed not to win
- If you do buy a ticket, you're guaranteed a chance to win
Set Realistic Expectations: It may be more likely for you to be struck by lightning...TWICE
- We all want to win, but the jackpot in any lottery is a very hard target to hit
- In Powerball, it borders on impossible: 140,000,000 possible combinations, and you have to pick just the right one to win big
- To enjoy playing, have a goal to win something, even if only a few dollars
- Because the jackpot "cap" is now in effect, the sales surplus will trickle down to the lower tier prizes, winning you potentially more money
Play Responsibly
- Lotteries aren't investments, they are bets or wagers with a very low probability of winning, and a very high probability of losing
- Don't play your last $5 and hope to win big money. The odds are you will lose whatever you spend.
- Make sure you have a chance to win, do what you can to put luck on your side, and have fun
