Lotto is -ev!
But get over it and move over to the next post. You have to grind back the lost points with good posts here.

Well thats the problem with gambling, you loose to often. I don´t just put 10 points in the draw from time to time. This way I don´t loose much points and who knows, maybe someday I win it.

Don't feel bad about it, I have shoved in all my points a few times and won, but I have also shoved my points all in and lost several times too. Overall it has been positive for me, but the last time I got a little lucky for sure. Better luck next time!

Lotto is +- EV - there is no expected gain or loss.

well lotto is a gambling risk in my opinion, so do not feel bad, they are just points my friend. Next time try to build a bankroll and start to play low stakes.
