This is a question Gambling

Broke the bank at Las Vegas, or won a packet of smokes for getting your tinkle out in class? Outrageous, heroic or plain stupid bets.

So let me get this straight....
....There are 720 possible combinations of 6 numbers?

Therefore, could I buy 720 tickets at £1 each using every single combination, knowing that I will not only win the jackpot, but also several 3 number, 4 number and 5 number wins?

£720 investment for a guaranteed 7-figure return surely?

That... doesn't sound right.
But I'm convinced.

What about...
the Bonus Ball?

Sorry, no
I'll edit my post accordingly.

Given any set of six numbers, there are 6 X 5 X 4 X 3 X 2 X 1 = 720 ways they can be drawn.

Oh I see
I'm glad I read this before I went and blew £720
