Given that the lottery is a selection of random numbers, there is little you can do on your own to increase your chance of winning, other than the obvious - buying a lot of tickets. However, if you decide to join a UK Lottery Syndicate, you will find the stats are in your favour… Rather than having just one shot at a win, you get 88 sets of numbers! If you decided to go it alone instead, that would cost than £4500 a year!

For less than the cost of a pint and a few plays on a fruit machine, you get 44 numbers on Wednesday’s draw, and another set of 44 on the Saturday draw. Whats more, as the system is fully automated, once you join, that is it, no more having to remember to drive to the newsagent or super market, wait in the long queue, and place your numbers twice a week.

If you are not near a TV when the draws are made, fear not, the Virtual World Direct eLottery Syndicate will e-mail you the results, so you can check at your leisure whether this is the week you have won.

A quarter of ALL jackpots are won by syndicates in Britain, so what are you waiting for? Check the site and join up today!
