Do not just close your eyes and start ticking off rather open your eyes and use your brain, then start your selection. Select numbers by choosing from the highest numbers in the ticket mixing them up with the lowest, also categorize the numbers as odd and even and randomly select them, also categorize your numbers as either if they have won previous lotteries or if they have not. This takes you into monitoring the winning numbers of the past and picking out the most likely winners.
