Page 1 of Bloody lottery! Time for a re-think.... >:-(

Right! I`ve just checked the lottery results and yet again have not won a carrot!! I`ve been doing the same 2 lines ever since it started in 1994 and must have won a tenner about 20 - 25 times and got 4 numbers once - a real life-changing sum of £22 !!??!?

Now , like anybody else Im too afraid to stop doing it or change my numbers just in case my numbers do indeed come up and I miss the opportunity to walk into work and p*** on my boss so I am indeed `trapped` so to speak. Even when - horror of horror`s I do win its a tenner but what can I do with that? Its wouldnt even pay for a night on the lash with the lads unless I bacame teatotal and did my drinking in the bogs thanks to the wash sinks!!?! The odd`s of getting 3 numbers on any one line is about 33/1 so why do we only win a tenner? The same with the other amounts!!

I reckon you should get more money for 3 , 4 and 5 numbers and significantly less for 6 numbers. I mean even if you `only` won £500,000 that`s enough to change your life! It should be something like.....
3 Numbers £40
4 Numbers £150
5 Numbers £5000
6 Numbers £500,000 - or depending on sales/roll overs etc!

Lets start a revolution.... >:(

Just think how much you would have "won" by not buying lottery tickets at all.

It works on probability. If, for instance, they had to pay out £40 on 3 million 3 number ticket winners one week, they`d go bust. :o

I`ve been doing the Irish lottery for years.
For a £1 stake,you win approx £ 450 for three numbers.
You`re free to lay as big a stake as you like though,as it is an odds based system.
The last time I won 3 numbers on the Camelot lottery,I got a poxy £67... >:(
I have won the £ 450 prize several times.
My friend has won over £1600 in the last year,the swine.

I keep doing the odd Camelot line,for the `big one`,but that`s all they get from me now.

Generally, the lottery is a tax on those who are poor at maths :)
