I have only won a few quid here and there from playing the lottery (both Lotto and Euromillions online), but have won upwards of £60 on those "Instant Wins" they have on their website.

I do have a DD set up for 2 lucky dips every Saturday though. One day I say to myself. If I won, say, £2million; I'd get a bigger house, buy an Aston Martin DB9, and invest/save the rest to give me a verrrrrry nice and comfortable life.

I had £10 on Davydenko to win the Tennis Masters Cup. Perhaps I should create a thread about it...

Won £10 last week.

Most ever won was 4 numbers, which was about £80.

I try to play £2 a week, as at least it gives me a chance of winning the big one.

Wish I made a thread when I won £88 on a scratch card, with my last quid for the month.

On a plus side, it was spent on a very messy night out.

Betting money on poor value odds (lottery) = fail.

Tell that to anybody who has won.

Backing 14m/1 odds to win a max of what? 7m? is still fail even if a few people get lucky.

Same goes for scratch cards.

God I bet you had a very good new years in 2001

That was a good xmas present, hope you did something like pay of mortgage/buy a house outright.

I had 4 numbers a few months back, got £45 or so which is pretty poor tbh

Do what i do..

Record last weeks show and buy the winning numbers from that previous week.

Play the recorded show and give your mate the winning ticket from last week saying he can help check for the numbers(he will concentrate on the numbers rather than looking at the dates etc on the ticket!)

Then just watch his expression
