1. Avoid Quick Picks
Powerball revealed that about 70 percent of lottery players used Quick Picks, which is a method of producing numbers via a computer. Lustig tipped that Quick Picks are the worst because the odds are terrible. He said that hundreds of thousands lose for every winner in Quick Pick. One of the big issues with Quick Pick is the constantly changing numbers.
2. Use the same numbers in Powerball again and again
NJ.com cites Lustig with saying that lottery players should use the same set of numbers. People should play these all the time if the lottery numbers are working. He added that people will know whether their numbers are working by reading his book.
“Remember, a set of numbers wins the grand prize, not individual numbers,” Lustig said in a report by AJC. He added that by playing multiple cards in Powerball, there should be some variety in the way the chosen numbers are being grouped to increase the odds.
3. Get carried away in Powerball.
People should set a budget of how much they can afford to spend in Powerball. They should avoid “lottery fever” as much as possible. People should only spend what they can afford. The Powerball can be a means to having a secure financial future for the entire family, but people should realize that it is not a means of livelihood.
Lustig also said that buying several tickets in the same game also increases the chances of winning the lottery More updates and details on the Powerball Jackpot are expected soon.
