Are you Superstitious? Then Play Wednesday's Irish Lotto

Image by getgood via Flickr

The Jackpot prize for this coming's Wednesday October 13 2010 Irish Lotto drawing is set at €12 million.

And, this will also be the 13th drawing since the last winner. Hmmm, the 13th drawing on the 13th day of the month. (Too bad it wasn't for €13M)

The last time the jackpot reached this level was in April 2010 when 1 winner claimed a €16 million prize.

So, if you are superstitious, perhaps you should play combinations containing the number 13 in various locations and multiples (13, 26, 39).

And maybe, just maybe, you'll win.
