How many times have we bought a lottery ticket, without earning a dollar for more than we have put all the faith in the world. However, one mathematician has a formula that he says can help increase your chances of landing a hefty Powerball prize so you don’t walk away empty-handed.
Beyond thinking regarding anniversary dates, birthdays, ages, number of children, among other numbers, that represent important people or moments, Skip Garibaldi, a mathematician and lottery fan, explains how to reduce the probability of winning 1 in 300 million to 1 in 1,667.
WHAT NUMBERS SHOULD YOU PLAY IN THE LOTTERY TO INCREASE YOUR ODDS, ACCORDING TO MATHEMATICIAN SKIP GARIBALDI?
A mathematician and lottery fan named Skip Garibaldi revealed to Wired how you can increase your chances of winning a big Powerball prize by picking a certain set of numbers.
He explained, in that sense, that the chances of winning a Powerball jackpot constantly fluctuate depending on the games chosen by a player and how they get involved in them.
The games where a person must hit 4 digits are the ones you are most likely to win. And in them, the combinations 1122 or 1212 are key.
“That means you’re going to bet on a 4-digit number with repeating digits, like 1122 or 1212, and if you bet on a box of 6, bet all 6 possible ways to write a number, writing a number with 2 ones in it, and 2 2 in it”, said the mathematician.
This would reduce the odds from 1 in 300 million to 1 in 1,667. “In most states, if you’re right, if you win that bet, you’ll get $800, which means you have to go to a lottery office,” he added.
In any case, the mathematician advised once morest trying to win money with the lottery, since “it is still a game.”
“It’s really difficult and unusual to be in a situation where you might reasonably expect to win money from the lottery,” Garibaldi said.
