The chances of winning a Mega Millions, Powerball, Euromillions, Lotto Max, or any other giant jackpot lotteries, are lower than smaller prize games.

So here are two valuable tips that could help you win the lottery faster and bigger.

STAR RATING

In the LottoPredict chart below, the Silver Lotto System shows these large sum games as 1-star games on the left.

That means you have the lowest chance of winning a jackpot or major prize.

To get the best results you should use a game with a 2 or preferably a 3-star Rating instead.

So if your game is a 1-star, you should change and play a higher star game in your area to get the best winning odds.

PLAY TIP

What if you have a small budget for tickets, and want to go for the bigger jackpot game?

The answer is to play the maximum number of tickets just after the main prize rolls over to a larger amount.

For example, if the main prize is $2 million then next week rolls over to $3 million, you should play that second game.

If it rolls over again over several weeks to $10 million, then you should only play that last week.

Now, the interesting part of this method is that no one knows if or when the prize will be won in between these game draws.

My recommendation is to research the game and chart the number of times it has rolled over and by what amount.

HOW TO PLAY

Then plan to play when the jackpot increases its climb after several draws, like this:

Week 1 - $1m

Week 2 - $2m

Week 3 - $5m

Week 4 - $6m - - Play this game now

Week 5 - $2m

Week 6 - $4m - Play this game now

Just remember, this tactic is only one small part of the strategy to get winning lottery numbers.

We have had quite a few major winners using LottoPredict however, like Jason and his $22.2 Million win. He won within 6 months, so don't give up too soon:

Hi Ken,

Yes, I have the winning ticket (I have won 1st division $22,236,652.87), my son bought it for me for Father’s day along with some scratchies and sent it in a card, I emailed him my numbers about a fortnight ago. He lives in WA and purchased the ticket there. Can hardly contain myself.

Cheers, Jason
