How to Win the Lotto

Gaming Strategies Explained

Dear Lotto Gamer,
If you’re like me and many Lotto gamers, you need more
than luck to win the Lotto jackpot. You need a system. In my
research, I discovered the Lotto gaming system used by
professionals. It’s an innovation called wheeling.
With this gaming innovation, you can play 20 or more
numbers and expect to win multiple prizes. Not only is it
simple, it is also cheap and comes with guarantees. These
features made wheeling the most common element in any

Updated June 6, 2005 | July 18, 2005 | August 20, 2005 | September 1, 2005 | April 17, 2006 | May 12, 2006
gaming strategy I’ve seen.
Recently, I met someone who’s been using the standard
and very expensive full System 12. It cost P9,240 to play.
They thought this is the only way to win. Would you believe
there is a way to play the same 12 numbers for only P180?
Amazing, isn’t it?
Imagine for a while how effective your gaming would be
with a system that is 98% cheaper. With such a system, you
can afford to play with as many as 25 numbers many times
over. You can probably get all six winning numbers in your
chosen 25 much sooner.
Because of this, I’d say, “Yes. It’s possible to win the
jackpot.” In fact, more jackpots are now won this way in the
U.S. and anywhere else in the world. Not surprisingly, most
are likely to be Lotto clubs.

Theory of Winning
How is Winning Probable
T rying to win the lotto can take forever. In fact,
the mathematics of the game proves that it is
virtually impossible to win. This section explores a
creative solution to the problem.
Minor Prizes are Good
You can win multiple prizes when wheeling for
combinations as shown in the featured example on
page 4. Apparently, one small wheel is enough to
recover a large outlay of betting capital.
If you will examine this example, you will
notice that the 5-number match 17-18-21-30-33 is
found 3 times on the wheel. The 4-number match
17-18-21-30 is also found 3 times. This happens
because wheels are designed to deliver guarantees.
A 4if5in12n wheel like this one can only deliver on
its promise if the numbers are arranged with
repeating groups.
One wheel is enough
to win your target prize..
In practice, you can win just a few of the total
216 5-number matches and about 9,450 4-number
matches possible. This is because wheels tend to
get really expensive in delivering guarantees. So,
the real challenge is how to make your chosen
wheels work efficiently at hitting those combina-
tions. Read Majority Wins on page 10 for a very
promising solution to this problem.
More Combinations are Better
Let us, for a moment, assume that there is only one
player in the game and we are not paying for our
guesses. How can this one player win? Simple. Bet
as many unique combinations as possible.
It is obvious from this idealized scenario that
the right approach in this game is for all the
players to cooperate and combine all their bets. In
theory, the number of unique combinations is much
higher when players cooperate in a group than
when players compete as individuals.
To promote cooperation, some kind of lotto
club with a growing roster of members is the ideal
organization. Read Organized Gaming on page
17 to understand why cooperation is a good
strategy and why it will ultimately lead to the
jackpot.
Perfect Timing is Best
There is a person behind the winning
numbers. At a given point in time,
somebody was lucky enough to pick a
certain combination of numbers and
placed a bet. In theory, this person
can be found because “lucky” signals
manifest themselves all around us.
In practice, age-old astrology can provide clues
on what to look for. Read Lead Gamer on page
20 to find out what “lucky” signals a $50,000
lottery winner projects.
Incidentally, the same techniques and tools
used in astrology can also be used to choose
periods in the future that are favorable for
speculation. Read Gaming Season on page 24
for details about how to find your lucky days.
Winning the jackpot is all about the
quality, quantity and timing of bets.
All in all, our theory of winning the jackpot
depends on how well we manage the three
elements of any credible jackpot attempt—quality,
quantity and timing of bets.
You Should Know That…
The odds of winning the jackpot in Lotto 6/42
are 5,245,786:1. But the odds of winning any
prize are 35:1.
Only 46% of all Lotto 6/42 combinations match
the profile of a winning combination.
In Lotto 6/42, the most probable sum is 129.
The most probable range is 100-158.
In 85% of past winning numbers, the least
number belongs to the 1-10 range.
Four pairs of sequenced numbers have never
been drawn. This means that 1-2-3-4-5-6 with
5 sequenced pairs, is not a good pick.
When the winning combination has low
numbers, there are usually multiple jackpot
winners.

 PICKING RULES
F or every criteria, good combinations account for
majority of all possible combinations. This
means that for every one good combination you
pick there are 7 more that are equally probable to
be drawn. Therefore, these picking rules are not
intended for picking good combinations, but rather
to filter out bad combinations.
__________________________________________
1 The sum of the numbers must be 100-158
The most probable sum in Lotto 6/42 is 129
and the most probable range is 100-158. So far, the
lowest sum for any winning combination is 44 and
the highest is 215.
_________________________________________
2 No more than 4 or 5 odd numbers; or
even numbers; or upper half (>22); or
lower half (<22)
The odd-even mix statistics on page 8 show
that the 2-4, 3-3 and 4-2 mix of numbers account
for 82% of all combinations. As a group, these
combinations are most probable.
Please take note that you are using this rule for
either the odd-even mix or for the high-low mix,
but not for both.
_________________________________________
3 No more than 2 or 3 numbers with the
same ending
4 No more than 1 or 2 pairs of numbers
with the same ending
A sequence of numbers with an interval of 10
like 1-5-15-25-35-42 is a combination with the
same endings. In this case, there were 4 numbers
ending in 5. Combinations with 3 numbers having
the same endings are drawn every 10-20 draws, but
2 numbers with the same is very frequent.
________________________________________
5 No more than 3 numbers in sequence or
regular interval
6 No more than 1 pair of numbers in
sequence or regular interval
The combination 1-2-3-4-5-6 is a bad pick. It
has a sequence of 6 numbers, but the maximum
sequence drawn so far is only 4. As rule, you
should have no more than 3 numbers in sequence.
Likewise, it is best to avoid regular sequences
similar to 1-2-3-4-5-6 like 2-4-6-8-10-12, which is
a sequence of even numbers, or 1-3-5-7-9-11, a
sequence of odd numbers.
_________________________________________
7 At least 1 number in 1-12 or 31-42 range
In 85% of the draws, one of the winning
numbers belongs to the 1-10 or 33-42 range. In
90%, it’s in the 1-12 or 31-42 range. And in 95%,
it’s in the 1-14 or 29-42 range.
_________________________________________
8 No more than 2 numbers from any skip
groups with skips 0 to 5 and 17+
9 No more than 3 numbers from the skip
group 6-16
Half the time, one of the numbers from the
preceding draws will be drawn again. But skip
count statistics show that, at most, only 3 numbers
for any skip groups will be drawn together.
Maintain an updated skip groups table so you
can tell which numbers are unlikely to be together
in the next draw.
_________________________________________
0 No combination from the past 600+ draws
No winning combination ever repeated itself. It
will take years for this to happen. So, you can
safely filter out all the winning combinations from
the past draws.

Unfortunately, there is no accepted method of 12 17 18 25 27 30 33
choosing entire sets of game tokens. However, one 13 17 21 25 26 30 33
characteristic of pick-6 Lotto offers a promising 14 18 21 25 26 27 37
solution: There are only, at most, 6 different
endings in any given combination. Obviously, you 15 5 25 26 30 33 37

need to somehow trap the winning endings in a 16 5 21 26 27 33 37

chosen set of fewer than 10 endings. 17 5 18 21 26 33 37
Statistical data show that about 80% of the 18 15 18 21 26 30 37
time, the winning combination has fewer than 6 19 17 18 21 25 26 37
different endings. And 50% of the time, it has 5 20 5 17 21 30 33 35
different endings. This means that a certain mix of 21 18 21 25 27 30 3 5Jackpot

Actual Game
Not including the Lotto organizers in the
picture is an oversight that affects your entire
game. First, you won’t be able to correctly identify
the type of game you are playing. Second, this
mistake will lead you to adopt questionable
strategies. And third, your ignorance makes you the
“milking cow” of the biggest player in the game—
the Lotto organizers.
In this complete gaming environment, we can
now trace the flow of the money each draw. If one
player loses, the Lotto organizers gain. If one
player wins, the Lotto organizers lose. However,
they can offset their losses because they gain from
other losing players.
In game theory, when one player’s gain leads to
another player’s loss, it is called a zero-sum game.
And the solution or strategy mathematicians
worked out for this type of game is for players to
maximize the minimum payoff.
For lotto gamers, this solution suggests that
cooperation is a good and mathematically correct
strategy. Understandably, you will more likely use
this strategy within a lotto club than when you are
playing alone.
Lotto Club Explained
A lotto club is different from the usual betting pool.
It is specifically organized to win major prizes and
to win often. This is its primary responsibility to its
members. Because of this, the club is practically
driven to play thousands of combinations. This
level of gaming, in turn, drives it to attract more
members. And then, more members will demand
more winnings. These demands create a positive
feedback loop.
Ultimately, the law of large numbers takes over
and the jackpot is finally won. How soon? We
cannot say for sure when, but we can speculate as
to how it will happen. Shown above is what the
membership of the lotto club will be just before a
major win.
“lucky” gamers
Lotto Club
“Lucky” individuals will be attracted to join
and they, in turn, will be given the opportunity to
pick numbers. And then, the combined betting
capital of the club will fund their picks. Done
enough times, they will overcome the odds. This is
how the jackpot will be won. „

And at a certain point in time, luck will be on
his side in winning the jackpot. This section
discusses what we know about this person.

Natal
Chart at the
Time of the
Lottery Win
According to Celeste Teal, his natal chart
shows that he will be lucky in gambling. How
astrology can be used to predict the future by
reading charts is best explained in the next section.
However, it should be noted that daily horoscopes
published in newspapers do not have the same
predictive value as the techniques discussed here.
Astrology Explained
Astrologers study the lives of people. But contrary
to what most people would think, they don’t just
make up stories and relate these to planetary
patterns. They use statistical reasoning.
First, astrologers identify a certain planetary
pattern. Next, well-known people who have a
particular pattern in their birth chart are used as
models. What happens most often in their lives will
become the statistical average. Finally, astrologers
apply statistical reasoning when reading somebody
who has the same pattern.
For example, let us suppose that a survey was
conducted of 100 people with birth charts showing
Jupiter and Neptune linked together. And let us say
the data showed that 90 out of 100 are millionaires.
Statistical reasoning can now be applied. If you
have the same pattern in your birth chart, it is
likely or highly probable that you are or will
become a millionaire.
Incidentally, the Jupiter and Neptune pattern is
called the millionaire’s aspect and many financially
successful people are known to have this pattern.
Lucky Patterns
In her book Predicting Events with Astrology,
Celeste Teal wrote:
Jupiter’s position and aspects are most
important in establishing the possibility of
wealth. … The outer planets combined
with Jupiter are especially good for
acquiring wealth.
Aspects between Jupiter and Saturn
can be very promising for attaining life-
long wealth. The same is true of Jupiter
with Neptune, called the “millionaire’s
aspect.”
Pluto with Jupiter can be materially
wonderful. … A good aspect between
Jupiter and Mars assures that a person will
make money faster than it can be spent. A
good aspect between Jupiter and the Sun
brings many benefactors into the life who
can help the individual reach ambitions. …
These latter two aspects, as well as Jupiter
in good aspect to Uranus, are sometimes
referred to as “lucky.” [Page 70]

Gaming Season
When to Play and Win
W inning the jackpot is all about timing. But
finding the signals telling you when to place
your bets is no easy task. This section discusses the
prediction techniques used by astrologers.
Timing Explained
Shown below is the chart at the time Paul won the
lottery on March 15, 1996 at Phoenix, Arizona.
However, the chart was reoriented to match Paul’s
natal chart with Pisces at the top.
Sun ¸ and Mars ¡
acting as event timers
Good placements for the Moon »,
Uranus † and Pluto ˆ
In astrology, the chart of a future event is
superimposed or overlaid on top of a natal chart to
examine the event in relation to a person’s life. For
a person to be “lucky” to win at Lotto, both charts
should form favorable aspects to each other. And
the dominant theme of the combined charts should
suggest “sudden benefits.”
In theory, planets that become prominent in the
event chart are good betting signals. In this section,
prominent means good placement in different areas
(or houses) in the chart. Due to space constraints,
planetary patterns (or aspects) will not be dis-
cussed here.
Event Timers
Two planets—the Sun ¸ and Mars ¡—act as
event timers. When the Sun or Mars passes over
the angles (e.g., Ascendant and Mid-Heaven), it
signals the coming of major events.
In the case of Paul’s lottery win, both the Sun
and Mars started crossing the Mid-Heaven of
Paul’s natal chart.
Four times in a year, the Sun will cross over
the angles (i.e., top, bottom, leftmost and
rightmost) of your natal chart while Mars, a much
slower planet, will also cross over half the signs in
your chart. This means there are at most 6 major
events in your life in a given year.
With this limited number of ideal signals for
one natal chart, it is obvious that you can only win
more frequently when you play in a group.
Shown on the next page is a table of the
position of the Sun and Mars in every Lotto 6/42
draw until the end of the year. You can anticipate
the best times to play by simply looking up which
day(s) have your Mid-Heaven sign.
Ideal Timing
Aside from the event timers, good placements of
the transiting (or moving) planets in your chart will
tell you when it is best to play. Usually, planets in
the 5th and/or 8th houses indicate good results from
speculation.
Except for the Moon and Venus, all the other
planets are slow moving so they are practically in
one or two signs until the end of the year. Shown in
next page is a table of the positions of the Moon
and Venus in every Lotto 6/42 draw until the end of
the year.
Saturn. In general, Saturn { is the planet
attributed to restrictions or bad luck. In July 2005,
Saturn entered the sign of Leo where it will stay
until September 2007 when it crosses over to the
sign of Virgo.
Unless your sign is Leo, you are not affected by
its negative influence. On the other hand, it is good
for you if transiting Saturn is found above the
horizon in your natal chart.
Jupiter. In general, Jupiter ¥ is the sign of
abundance or good luck. In October 2005, Jupiter
entered the sign of Scorpio and will stay there until
November 2006 when it crosses over to Sagittarius.
If you are a Scorpio, now is the best time for
trying your luck. In general, all Scorpios are lucky,
but those born under the Chinese year of the
Dragon may experience difficulties.
The best place for transiting Jupiter in your
chart is in the 1st, 2nd, 5th, 7th, 8th and directly above
your natal Sun.
Moon. As the planet ruling public contests, the
transiting Moon » should ideally be in the 5th or 8th
houses in your natal chart. It will also help if the
sign of Cancer is ruling the 1st, 2nd, 5th, 8th or 11th
house in your natal chart.
Venus. As the planet attributed to benefits
from partnerships, the transiting Venus ± should
ideally be in the 1st, 2nd, 5th, 7th or the 8th house in
your natal chart. It can also be directly over your
natal Sun or crossing over the Mid-Heaven.
Outer Planets. Uranus †, Neptune ‡ and
Pluto ˆ can signal the kind of sudden and/or
substantial wealth we expect from winning the
lottery. Ideally, they should be in the 2nd, 5th and 8th
houses in your natal chart. „

Target Draw Dates

As of May 12, 2006, the planets are found as
shown on the bottom-left chart. What you need to
do is to plot the current positions of the planets
from this chart into your own chart. Once you have
done this, you can now visualize and estimate
where the planets will be in the months ahead.
Next, you can identify the ideal months for Uranus in the
your chart. You can then scan the table of draw 12th House

In the case of our specimen chart, the months

From these months, two possible draw dates were
chosen. Their respective charts are shown here.
However, the first one has a weakness—the Sun is
not prominent. The second one is better with a high
concentration of planets packed in the 8th house of
