What are the most frequent Lotto Numbers

micka · 2010-02-01 14:56:42

Folks, What numbers appear the most in the Irish Lotto (Lotto, Lotto Plus 1 and Lotto Plus 2). I think PaddyPower's odds are good at 35 to 1 for just two numbers to appear out of seven. Are there better odds elsewhere?;) Cheers, Micka.

That sounds like it is even worse value than 2 out of 6 tbh:D

Depends how much you win of course.

They pay 15/1 for 5, 150/1 for 6 and 1500/1 for 7. I dont have the brains to work out the real odds so if there is a genius among us......?

Bad idea picking the six most popular numbers.

I'd imagine a fair few people try it every week. So if by some chance they did come up (and they've got as much chance as any other combination of numbers coming up), you'd be sharing a jackpot with many other people.
