As with all national lotteries, your chances of winning are absolutely miniscule. In fact, the odds are so great that it's best not to think about them too much if you want to remain sane. Though the draw is completely random, and you have zero control over the outcome, it's still possible to use various lottery winning strategies to bring the odds down everso slightly in your direction.

In truth, there's no strategy or skill required to play the scratch card lottery. You simply buy your ticket, scratch of the foil covering the numbers, and hope. Though the odds of winning are incredibly small, that's not the same as saying that noone ever wins. Far from it, there are small winners almost every day. But for the big prizes north of £1 million, these are much rarer occasions.

When we hear about those lucky winners who manage to land eye-watering amounts of cash from the Powerball or a progressive jackpot at the US casino, we probably imagine they take the total amount home. But in reality, there are inescapable taxes to be paid. If you win in the casino, they hold back 25% of the payout for the tax man. However, in the UK, because gambling is seen as a pastime, most casino winnings are tax free.

We all have a theory. A strategy. Some tactics. Perhaps we try to hit the lucky lottery numbers using a system. Playing our hunches. Just using random picks. Few of us, however, would consider a séance. Asking the other side for guidance as to which numbers to play at Lotto Agent and the like seems a tad odd. Still, a woman in Basingstoke won one of the best lottery jackpots because of just such an influence. So then should we all ask ghosts of dead relatives for help?

The best lottery jackpots are the ones we win. Certainly, that’s how we consider it as players, as ticket buyers. However, in our pell-mell pursuit of riches we can sometimes overlook the other side. No, not losing. We never overlook that. No what we can sometimes lose sight of are the best lottery pay out made from our stake. Numerous good causes benefit from lotteries of the sort found at Lotto Agent. Whether you consider Welsh Football should be one of them is another matter.

The British government may have to do something about the lottery loophole. Typically, the law prohibits under 18s from gambling in the UK. Unfortunately, this doesn’t extend to lotteries. So UK lottery laws permit over 16s to purchase tickets and participate. This is something MPs and Lords would like to halt. So the operational terms of service for sites like Lotto Agent would change. Indeed if MPs have their way, even the best lottery jackpots will be reserved for adults only.

It is often said; the best lottery to play is a local lottery. The economics of this are clear. It keeps the money local. Britain has a national lottery, of course, but the good causes benefited by it are typically of a grander scale. Smaller charities and the like require a more localized solution. Fortunately, UK gambling laws allow local authorities to set up lotteries for just this purpose. Carlisle is just the latest example of this, they’ve just established a new community lottery.
