Should you use this Arizona man's lottery secret for winning multiple Powerball prizes?

The jackpot tv draw at the Powerball Florida studios which produced six $1 million prizes for a single player.

The Silver Lotto System is based on playing the same batch of different numbers repeatedly over several games.

But a resident from Arizona won $1 million six times in a Powerball lottery by using the same numbers in one game. The man was able to claim six of eight winning Powerball tickets in the April 25 drawing. It came to $6 million before taxes.

Details of the 6 times winning Powerball prizes in the 2012 draw.

The winner, who chose to remain anonymous, bought tickets with the same numbers: 4, 25, 29, 34 and 43, and used different Powerball numbers. The combination landed him a second-prize of $1 million for each ticket.

 
 

The winner picked up his winnings in three visits to the lottery's Phoenix location, according to Karen Bach, an Arizona Lottery spokeswoman.

So should you buy multiple tickets with identical numbers to increase your winnings if the numbers are drawn?

My recommendation? No.

The chances of getting the right combination multiple times is so statistically remote that it ends up being purely chance. And chance is not a system for winning the lottery.

And it’s expensive too.

Instead use proven figure matches of the Silver Lotto System and you'll get more frequent wins more often.
