You are right, of course, the Lotteries have been "adjusted" over the years to ensure there are BIG jackpots so every man and his dog jumps into it with larger and larger "wagers", giving them greater profits because their "cut" is a percentage of the wager.
Maybe a Guvnut review followed by regulation?
It would be a simple exercise eg can you remember when you had to get 5 numbers plus the PB to win Div 1? Now it is 7 numbers and the already mind-boggling odds become extremely more so. So basically the Guvnuts should say - "Tatts - go back to what you started with"!
Re Ozlotto? Cut it back from 7 to six numbers! Same as TattsLotto but on a Tuesday!
This will ensure "smaller" but more regular prizes and those who spend their dinner money trying to win 100m dollars may end up with a more nutritious meal - a win-win for all including the health of the nation!
