While the larger payouts may appear to draw the most attention, the odds of winning they are much smaller than if you were to play the Little Lottos or even the Dailies. On the flip side, if you do elect to go big or go home, the following are a few methods you might consider using to up your odds and bring home the big bucks!

Tracking is a popular method employed by lotto enthusiasts as a means of upping the odds that they win. It involves keeping track of the person numbers which are drawn over a length of time. Numbers that appear often are known as hot numbers - some people choose to play these hot numbers with the assumption that they have shown up often within the past, so they should show up again. Conversely, there are other people who are of the opposite mentality and lottery believe that these hot numbers are on their own way out.
