To play All or Nothing, choose 12 numbers from 1-24. Tickets are $2 each. Drawings are held twice a day. The odds of winning All or Nothing are 1 in 2,704,156. There is a $100,000 jackpot prize for matching all 12 winning numbers or for matching zero numbers. The overall odds of winning a prize are one in 4.5. Win All or Nothing 10 different ways, for matching 8 or more numbers or for matching 4 or less numbers.

You will only have a few hours between drawings to update your lotto history, create the charts to pick the best numbers, and go buy your tickets! That doesn't leave much time, but it is possible to improve the odds if you are ready!

Lottery Strategies to Help You Win Iowa and Minnesota All or Nothing

Thirty-six percent of all the winning numbers drawn in Iowa and Minnesota All or Nothing are numbers that won in the last drawing.

WHEN TO PLAY A LONG SHOT NUMBER

Since 50 percent of all All or Nothing numbers are drawn each game and there are so few numbers to pick from, you don't see many long skip periods between wins. When you see a number out more than about 8 drawings, by all means play it. Probability is on your side.

GET THE ODD/EVEN ADVANTAGE

You should have a relatively equal mix of odd and even numbers. More than half of all the drawings have a relatively even spread of 5 Odd/7 Even, 6 Odd/6 Even or 7 Odd/5 Even. There has never been a drawing in All or Nothing in which all Odd or all Even numbers occurred. The Odd/Even Bias Tracker® in Advantage Gold tells you when you should play more Odd or more Even numbers.

GET THE HIGH/LOW ADVANTAGE

In All or Nothing, half your numbers should be chosen from the Low Numbers, 1 to 12, and the other half chosen from the High Numbers, 13 to 25. More than half of all the drawings have a relatively even spread of 7 Low/5 High, 6 Low/6 High, or 5 Low/7 High. There has never been a drawing in which all Low or all High numbers occurred. The Low/High Bias Tracker® tells you whether you should play more Low or more High numbers the next drawing.

LOTTO NUMBER SUM ADVICE - PLAY A BALANCED GAME®

After you choose five numbers you want to play, add them together and make sure that the sum of the 12 numbers adds up to somewhere between 131 and 169. Sums that fall within that range will account for over 70 percent of all lottery jackpots won.

Wheeling with All or Nothing

Although this type of pick-12 game is becoming more popular in the USA, we do not currently have wheels designed for this type of game. The more numbers that are added to the pick-size, the more complicated the wheels are to create. The best we can recommend at this point is to use a pick-10 wheel from Wheel 10 Keno Gold. Then, choose 2 "Power Numbers" or favorite numbers and add them to every combination created by the wheel to complete your 12 numbers on your bet slips.

Lottery Pools and Lottery Syndicates

POOL YOUR WAY TO LOTTO RICHES

Several of the 109 Lotto jackpots won with Smart Luck lottery systems were won by groups of people who pooled their money. Sharing the ticket cost with others stretches your Lotto budget. By playing with a group, you can afford to buy more lottery tickets—and play larger wheeling systems—than you could (or should) by yourself. Draw up an agreement and have the members of your pool sign it.

How to Get Lucky in Lotto

CASH IN ON THE LUCK OF OTHERS

When you form a Lotto pool, your group is also pooling its aggregate luck. A jackpot could happen because of the luck just one member brings to your pool. Select your partners carefully. Share your luck with winners, not losers. Avoid negative people; not only are they unlucky, but they dampen enthusiasm and drain energy from others. You want to enhance your own luck, not dilute its strength. One quick way to tell winners from losers is simply to ask them: "Do you think you are a lucky person?" Many people quickly admit, "I'm unlucky. I never win anything." They won't bring good luck to your group either.

CASH IN ON A POSITIVE ATTITUDE

No one should play games of chance out of desperation because they need the winnings. The needy have a greater fear of losing the hard-earned money they gamble with. It is just one of life's dirty tricks that the very fear of losing blocks the winning forces. Thoughts are charged with energy, especially when triggered by emotion. Fear attracts exactly that which one fears. A strong desire for a goal that is charged with positive energy, attracts a positive response, especially when every effort is made to attain that goal.
