The only way is through a syndicate where you'll get more (smaller) prizes but more often.

So for example in the UK National Lottery this would be how you would arrange it:

You are in a 49-player syndicate with each player choosing 5 numbers.

Why 5 and not 6?

Because your 5 numbers are combined with a variable 6th number in a strict mathematical pattern so that you know before every draw that you’re going to match at least 1 number.

What's more, for the System to work — for it to secure that vital 'guaranteed' number — it needs precisely 44 single line entries in each UK Lotto game...

Which means you get 44 chances of winning in every draw With draws on Wednesday and Saturday, that’s a remarkable 88 chances of a prize every single week!

Forty-four entries means you also win a combination of prizes.

This table shows you how many prizes you get for how many correctly matched numbers:


5 matched = 44 wins of 1 x 6-ball JACKPOT win, 1 of 5 + Bonus ball win + 42 5-ball wins

4 + bonus ball = 44 wins of 2 5+bonus ball wins and 42 4-ball wins

4 matched = 44 wins of 2 5-ball wins and 42 4-ball wins

3 matched = 44 wins of 3 4-ball wins and 41 3-ball wins

2 matched = 4 wins of 4 3-ball wins

Easy isn't it?
