Lottery Syndicates: The Smarter Way To Play The Lotto?

Do you play the lottery? Just like everyone else who buys a
ticket, I'm sure you'd love to win the jackpot, am I right?

The problem as I'm sure you already know, is that the odds of
scooping a big lottery win are extremely low.

However, there is something you can do to drastically increase
your chances of winning a big cash prize, just by changing the
way you play the lotto. Instead of just playing on your own, why
don't you consider playing as part of a lottery syndicate?

I know what you're thinking...yeah that's a great idea but I
don't want to share the prize with anyone. The thing is; with a
syndicate you are far more likely to win, than if you just play
with your own tickets.

It's Better To Have A Share In A Big Lottery Prize, Than No Win
At All

Think about the times when you've read about a lottery win of
some note. How many times have you seen a picture of a syndicate
winning it? It's appears that syndicates seem to win it more
often than individuals these days.

That's because savvy lottery players are joining more and more
syndicates to increase their chances of winning.

When you see all those syndicate winners posing for photos with
some celebrity, do they look disappointed to you? Of course they
don't, they are as pleased as punch!

Even if you win a share in one of the smaller prizes, that could
still make a huge difference to your life. What could you do
with a £5000 lottery win?

* You could enjoy a fantastic holiday abroad

* Pay off some or all of your debts

* Buy a newer car

* Get some new furniture for your house

The Problems With A Syndicate

Obviously, like a lot of things, syndicates do have their
drawbacks. Many syndicates are formed by friends and work
colleagues. Everything usually starts out on good terms, but
it's common for a certain amount of friction to build up between
syndicate members. Even before any money is won.

Someone has to be appointed to collect the money and buy the
lottery tickets. This in itself can be a bone of contention,
because you need to have someone that everyone in the syndicate
trusts.

It's not just about whether they will run off with the money if
you win, but they also need to be very reliable, so that
everyone knows the tickets are always purchased every single
week, without fail. I'm sure you've read about the horror
stories, when the syndicate numbers come up, but the person in
charge of buying the tickets forgot to buy them.

There's also the problem with some syndicate members not paying
on time. They say things like: "they are a bit short of money
this week, so they will pay double next week". What happens if
you win this week, and they hadn't paid their money? That's when
serious infighting can occur.

In my book though, playing the lottery as part of a syndicate is
definitely the smarter way to play. I believe that the positives
far outweigh the negatives, because you are so much more likely
to win. Instead of just 1 or two lines this week, how do you
fancy your chances with 80?

What if you did 80 lines every single week? Sounds exciting,
doesn't it? Playing the lottery like this makes the whole
experience so much more enjoyable.

A Hassle Free Alternative

Because of the rising popularity of lottery syndicates, there
are now a few companies who take care of managing the syndicate
for you.

* They bring together people interested in joining, so you can
join a syndicate straightaway.

* They collect all the money from every member by direct debit,
so you never get people in the syndicate who haven't paid to be
there every week.

* They buy all the tickets electronically, and give you your
numbers before the draw is made. So you always know for certain,
that the tickets have been purchased.

Personally, I think this really takes away the hassle, and puts
the fun back into playing the lottery. I don't know what you
think, but for me, it sure beats standing in that long queue
every week, waiting to buy a ticket.

If you want to really improve your chances of winning the lotto,
you should seriously consider joining a lottery syndicate.
