✅ 1. Play a System Entry
Instead of just picking 6 numbers, you can select 7 or more numbers and generate all possible combinations of 6-number sets.
- Example: Choose 7 numbers → system generates 7 combinations.
- Greatly increases chances of hitting 3, 4, or 5 numbers.
- If several of your numbers hit, you could win multiple times in one draw.
⚠️ It costs more, but it’s one of the most effective ways to boost your odds.
⚖️ 2. Mix Even and Odd Numbers
- Winning combinations are rarely all-even or all-odd.
- Try to play a balanced set, like 3 even + 3 odd, or 4 + 2.
This mimics how actual results typically land.
🔢 3. Spread Numbers Across the Full Range
- Lotto Greece draws from 1 to 49
- Avoid clustering numbers too closely (e.g., 1–6 or 30–35)
- Divide the number pool into ranges (1–10, 11–20, etc.) and pick at least one number from each group
✅ Example: 7, 14, 22, 31, 39, 47
This gives better overall coverage of the draw range.
🔥 4. Use Hot and Cold Numbers
Track:
- Hot numbers: Frequently drawn recently
- Cold numbers: Not seen in a while
You can:
- Mix 3 hot + 3 cold numbers for balance
- Choose a few that haven’t shown up in a long time — they might be “due”
🚫 5. Avoid Common Number Patterns
Don’t pick:
- Straight sequences (e.g., 1-2-3-4-5-6)
- Multiples (5-10-15-20-25-30)
- Only birthdays (limits your pool to 1–31)
- Numbers forming shapes on the ticket slip
These combos are overused — if they hit, you’ll probably split the prize with many people.
💸 6. Use the Bonus Number (7th Number) to Your Advantage
- While not chosen by the player, it affects certain prize tiers (like 5+1)
- So when selecting a system play or group strategy, factor in combinations that could catch the bonus tier
🤝 7. Play in a Syndicate (Group Play)
- Combine funds with friends, family, or coworkers
- Buy more combinations (especially system tickets)
- Increases your overall draw coverage
You’ll share the winnings, but you’ll also improve your chances of hitting something.
🧠 8. Track and Rotate Your Numbers
- Don’t always play the same 6 numbers forever
- Rotate between a main pool of 10–15 numbers
- Use a spreadsheet or app to log what you played and track performance
It helps you stay disciplined and strategic rather than guessing.
