Can the Lotto Be Won Twice Using the Same Amounts

Personally I'd have thought that the probabilities from the actual same amounts profitable a lottery would are already particularly slim.

As amazing as it might sound this actually happened inside the Bulgarian lottery in consecutive weeks.  The quantities four,15, 23, 24, 35 and 42 had been drawn on the 6th and 10th September 2009.  These quantities ended up being not drawn inside the same buy so it absolutely was naturally a random occurrence.

There was an investigation into your draw but authorities say there was practically nothing but coincidence involved!

Interestingly plenty of no one came ahead the first time the numbers have been drawn but the second time 18 people today obtained these figures.  I wonder if these winners personally chosen the numbers or simply took a lucky dip like most of us do.

I'm pondering of actively playing the identical quantities inside New Zealand lottery this full week just with the exciting of it.  In the event you hardly ever listen to from me once more (or in case you hear me hollering from your rooftops) then chances are lightning has struck three times within a row.  And why not?  All phone numbers in each and every and each and every lotto draw have identical likelihood of successful.  So it may very well be 3rd time lucky for me.

In accordance to your respected mathematician (Bulgarian I presume) the likelihood in the identical six figures coming up in two consecutive draws is about 1 in four million.  Personally I would have considered they ended up even smaller sized than this but then I am not a maths genius - which I presume this fellow is. I did a lookup on Yahoo and google for him but came up using a total good deal of things that was much more confusing than maths.

The moral with the story is if your figures have won the moment they nonetheless use a slim probability of successful once again, if not future weeks time then probably next calendar month or future twelve months.

Who would have "thunk" lotto might be won twice with the exact same amounts?

Probably I must have stored the quantities of your shedding lotto tickets that helped my launch my new occupation.
