Top tips for playing the lottery

High-low split

It has been shown that winning tickets will usually have a spread of numbers across the Lottery's number field.

If the Lottery has a number field of 1-50, then 1-25 would be in the lower half while 26-50 would be in the higher half.

It is unlikely that all numbers will be either from the lower or higher half, therefore your numbers should be a split of both.

that all of the numbers picked should add up to more than 177.

Don't play popular numbers

If you play number sequences that get played all the time like multiples of 5 (10, 15, 20, 25) or lucky number 7 (14, 21, 28, 35) then you are more likely to end up dividing the prize with other people.

So for a chance to win big, avoid playing popular numbers.

Mix odd with even numbers

To give yourself a better chance of winning, mix odd and even numbers.

Draws with just odd or even numbers are extremely rare.

Check your numbers

Check through your numbers thoroughly as you may have made a. mistake in writing down the winning numbers.

According to recent figures, there has been £1.4 billion unclaimed in Lottery winnings in the last 18 years.

In 2012, £63.8 million was unclaimed with the ticket having been bought in Stevenage or Hitchin area of Hertfordshire.
