Tips for playing The Idaho Weekly Grand

Remember – there’s no real way to predict the set of winning numbers as drawings are completely random, but there are tried and tested ways to increase your chance to win.

Play the Right Games

There is a selection of lottery games—and they each have different odds of winning.

  • Read the odds to ensure you’re maximizing your chances of winning.
  • Pick up some scratch cards. Yes, they offer smaller prizes but higher chances of winning overall.

Don’t Miss a Lottery Win!

  • Keep your ticket somewhere that is safe and easy to find
  • Make a note of the drawing date and time in your calendar
  • Check and Double-check the numbers against your ticket
  • Use a lottery app to keep track

Pick Traditional Lucky Numbers

Seven days of the week, seven wonders of the world, seven continents, seven seas, and the list goes on.

Other traditional lucky numbers include three (as in “good things come in threes”) and four.

Play Second-Chance Games (Where Possible)

Many lotteries offer second-chance drawings on non-winning tickets giving players a bonus chance to be a winner.

Take Steps to Secure Winning Lottery Tickets

Sign it! Your signature on the back of a lottery ticket can help you prove that it is indeed yours if it gets lost or stolen.

Lucky Number Generators

The simplest way to find lucky numbers to play is simply to use a generator. Lucky number generators use numerology, or perhaps simply randomness, to find numbers for you.

Playing as Part of a Lottery Pool

What Are Lottery Pools?

A lottery pool is when group of players pools money to buy lottery tickets together – any of the tickets bought which results in a win, will be split.

Joining a lottery “club” will not improve your chances of winning foreign lotteries although 

Con artists will claim that pooling your money with other people means you can buy more tickets and have more chances to win.

Legitimate lottery sites utilize quality SSL encryption and spam filters as their first line of defense to guard against prying eyes and spammers, for instance.

Is the Idaho Weekly Grand a Scam?

Absolutely not! The Idaho Lottery was launched in 1989 and is still going strong over 31 years later. Unfortunately, fake wins with other institutions have become a regular occurrence – so here are a few tips to keep you and your money safe!

  • Only buy tickets from authorized lottery retailers.
  • Offers to sell international lottery tickets by mail or online are usually illegal.
  • If you didn’t buy a lottery ticket or participate in a second-chance lottery game, you didn’t win no matter how convincing a text message may sound.
  • The lottery doesn’t notify players when you win; players alone are responsible for checking your winning tickets.
  • Players are NEVER required to pay money up-front to receive a winning lottery prize.

lottery scam is a type of advance-fee fraud which begins with an unexpected email notification, phone call, or mailing (sometimes including a large check) explaining that “You have won!” a large sum of money in a lottery.

What to do:

If you receive a letter or email claiming that you won a prize for the Idaho Lottery but did not enter, it is strongly recommended that you:

  • Delete or destroy the letter or email immediately.
  • Do not open any link contained in a suspicious email.
  • Do not respond to, or contact, the sender.
  • Do not disclose any personal or financial information.
  • Do not send any money.
  • If you have already responded, break off contact with the fraudster immediately.
  • If you have provided personal or financial details, alert your bank immediately.
  • If you receive a suspicious email, or believe you have been the victim of internet fraud, report it to the police.

The chances of recovering money from foreign crooks may be even worse than that of actually winning a lottery. Most lottery scams are executed by con artists in other countries, sometimes using U.S. addresses to disguise their real locations. Differences in legal systems, difficulties of conducting investigations in other countries, and expenses involved in pursuing cross-border fraud make the chances of getting your money back very, very slim to none. Online lotteries are also licensed and regulated by either a gambling commission, a government, or both.

What is Scratch for schools?

Jim Bruce Scratch for Schools is a fundraising event that reaps great benefits for school! The Jim Bruce Scratch for Schools event is a chance to raise additional funds for schools and what they may need, including books, desks, audio/video equipment, playground materials, field trips and more. This is a great and easy opportunity. Since Scratch for Schools began in 2001, the Idaho Lottery has given $1,331,403 additional dollars to Idaho Public Schools.

What is bucks for Books?

The Idaho Lottery has joined forces with the Idaho Commission for Libraries to create Bucks for Books every September. During the month of September, VIP members can donate 200 points – equal to one new library book. Idaho public elementary schools can apply for award monies and books during the month of October.
