5 of the 6 numbers came up in the lotto draw a while back

Ciaran500

IIRC 4 8 15 16 23 24 came up a while ago. So close >_<

Is anyone here using them? I use the Numbers in the Euromillions draw but not the Lotto cos the chances of them coming up again are remote. We could all end up sharing the jackpot together only to be cursed by bad luck and stranded on a weird island off the coast of Donegal without a Kate-quality babe in sight...

The link to the screenshot of the numbers on tellytext is in my sig, bottom right hand corner, see 24 instead of 42.

Well in reality the chances of them coming up again in the Irish Lotto are exactly the same as the odds of them coming up in the Euromillions.

Yay - I'm in a pedantic mood.

If you did win with the Lost numbers you'd get far less than a normla jackpot cause loads of other people would have them too.

But why would you use them?
They have the same chances as any other numbers coming up, but if you did win, and they were magic numbers, you'd be ****ed cos they're pretty cursed.

I'm so brave and desperate for cash that I don't care.
I ain't afriad of no numbers!

Wouldn't that only be the case if the Euromillions draw was the same as the Irish lotto pedantic boy?

The Euromillions has a different structure in terms of the amount of numbers you can pick from etc, so there are more possible combinations to choose - therefore you are less likely to win it.

But your right in that there is absolutely nothing to stop the exact same numbers coming up again, or even 10 times in a row... its not like the balls have a memory.

if they did come up in the lotto, i'd say all the lost obsessees would all go insane at the exact same time and the world would be turned on its head

loon

all forms of the lottery are fixed anyways... i believe that lost is in cahoots with the lottery, getting all the lost fans to bet on the numbers, knowing full well they'll never come up.. meaning guarenteed profits.
