£91m Euromillions jackpot goes to 2 British tickets!

10 November 2009

biggest euromillions lottery winFriday's combination 11, 19, 34, 43 and 45; lucky star numbers 5 and 9 proved to be a lucky one to 2 British tickets holders. The jackpot, that has rolled-over 5 times, stood at a massive £91m meaning each ticket has scooped an incredible £45.5m!

One of the tickets belongs to Les Scadding, 58, and his wife Samantha Peachey-Scadding, 38, from Caerleon, South Wales (pictured). It is now the largest-ever single lottery win in the UK history - the couple are picking up their £45,570,835.50 cheque for half the jackpot and could now be placed in the same league as Sir Cliff Richard, DJ Chris Evans, celebrity chef Jamie Oliver and top model Kate Moss, according to the Sunday Times Rich List. The second ticket is held by a lottery syndicate of Liverpool IT workers called the "Magnificent Seven", banking £6.5m each.

Let's review the results of the abbreviated 12-number lottery wheel

5 November 2009

lottery wheel odds We theoretically played 22 combinations by using 12-number lottery wheel for Wednesday 4th of November lottery draw. Out of 12 numbers selected, we got 2 winnings numbers right, so as you know, no prizes there! 9 combinations had both numbers in, so if we trapped a third winning number, there probably would have been some winnings.

Let's look at statistical odds now so that we can have some point of reference to how badly or well we did with our wheeling.

The lottery odds for this particular wheel are as follows:

Let's wheel some lottery numbers for Wednesday's draw, shall we?

3 November 2009

lottery wheel Those of you who are new to the concept of lottery wheeling, please refer to Golden Rules - Rule 5 for a brief explanation. Here, let's get practical, let's do some wheeling for this coming Wednesday, 4th of November lottery draw. Please note that unless these combinations are played in Situla lottery syndicate, these are all theoretical plays. The purpose of it all is to explain how lottery wheeling works.

There is an overwhelming number of lottery wheels available, here we are going to use a 12-number wheel that generates 22 combinations and guarantees 4 out of 5 win. This means that if we manage to trap 5 winning lottery numbers in the selected 12 numbers, we should expect to get at least one 4-number prize. So why not use a wheel that guarantees the main prize, we hear you ask?

Things you should know about Catchalotto's Quick Pick function

1 November 2009

lottery lucky dip numbers When you purchase your lottery ticket either via an official National lottery retailer or online, you have an option to select your numbers via Lucky Dip facility, which randomly generates a combination for you.

Similarly, when you join Catchalotto syndicate, you have an option to enter your own combination or ask Lottorino to pick a combination for you via Quick Pick function. Here's what Lottorino does before it gives you your lucky combination:

1. It will check that your combination has not already been played within your syndicate - remember, no more duplications- more unique combinations are played, better the odds become!

2. It will scan syndicate's combinations and work out which numbers have not yet been entered, and will try to use some of those numbers in a combination given to you. That way, a syndicate is able to cover more lotto numbers.

Trick or treat? It's a double lotto rollover, treat please!

29 October 2009

double lottery rollover join syndicate It was lotto rollover yesterday, but with a drawn combination in high numbers 24;25;34;38;41;43 no jackpot was won, meaning it's a double rollover now. We had a similar high-numbered combination on the 7th October 26;27;28;43;45;46 which scored 5% Lottorino, comparing to 78% Lottorino yesterday. This is because 24 as a first number is regarded as slightly better and yesterday's combination also had a better spread in numbers.

It's a double lottery rollover with an estimated jackpot of £12,000,000. Good luck to Draconis syndicate! If you'd like to join this syndicate, you can do so until 17:00 Sat. Maximum number of places is 30! Join here.

What is so special about 6;7;16;20;28;47 lottery combination?

25 October 2009

distribution of lottery resultsThere are 13,983,816 lottery combinations that can be made from numbers 1 to 49. If we were to say, that the first combination is 1;2;3;4;5;6, the second one 1;2;3;4;5;7, the third one 1;2;3;4;5;8, and so on, until combination number 13,983,816 is 44;45;46;47;48;49, we would find that the above lotto combination - 6;7;16;20;28;47 - sits right down the middle, i.e. a combination situated in 6,991,908 place.

In probability theory and statistics terms, this combination can be called a median - a number separating the higher half of a distribution, from the lower half. Well, to be statistically correct, a lottery combination 6;7;16;20;28;48 is also a median.

Did you know that Catchalotto syndicate allows for no duplication, increasing the chances of lottery win?

22 October 2009

how to win lottery jackpotThe odds of winning the UK National lottery is 1 in 13,983,816, meaning that there are 13,983,816 combinations that can be made from numbers 1 to 49.

Until recently, Camelot, the UK National lottery operator, used to release its sales figures. Although those figures are no longer published, it is possible to reverse calculate the lotto sales as we know how the lottery prize tiers work (that is the topic for another day, perhaps). Nowadays, the sales normally average to £17,000,000 per Wednesday lottery draw and £30,000,000 for Saturday lottery draw, which begs the question why there are sometimes no jackpot winners as obviously with that amount of tickets (e.g. 17,000,000 tickets on a Wednesday draw), we should be covering all possible lotto combinations. For Saturday draw we should be covering all possible lottery combinations at least twice!!!

Will number 48 break its habit and be drawn at skip 9?

19 October 2009

Is 48 a winning lottery numberIf you look at all previous Lotto draws, you will find that number 48 was drawn 182 times (excluing bonus ball appearance). And out of those 182 times, it appeared at skip 9 only once! Now then, the current skip stands at 9, so is it worth taking a bet on number 48 appearing or shall we follow the stock market's rule "Trend is your friend"?

The only other number that is so behind at skip 9, is number 13, which also has been drawn once at this skip. But number 13 has much lower appearance overall - total appearance 154 times.

High numbered combination made way to low Lottorino

8 October 2009
Yesterday's combination 26;27;28;43;45;46 scored a very low Lottorino mainly due to its bias towards higher numbers. Only in 1% of instances in the past lottery draws the first number was higher than 25, and equally 1% of combinations had their last number lower than 26.

Lottorino is designed in such a way so as to pick the most average and hence the most probable lottery combinations by looking at what happened in the past. Therefore yesterday's combination was considered to be "a bad one" to choose.

Lotto rollover, all the best everyone!

3 September 2009
Chances of guessing 2 lotto numbers correctly are 13.24% or 1 in 7.6. In other words, you should expect to guess 2 numbers correctly in 1 combination for each 7 tickets you buy. The syndicate Theemim had 7 combinations entered, and 5 of them guessed 2 numbers correctly (statistically you should have bought 35 tickets to get such odds!!!)

It's Lotto Rollover on Saturday, let's try tilting the odds in our favour a bit more!
