Suicide Lottery
Best game ever, and it's free.

Wait for the national lottery program to come on, and then you and each of your compatriots get a piece of paper each, and write down 6 numbers.

Here's the important bit - at no point must you have bought a ticket.

So to put it simply: you've got your lottery numbers, but no ticket.

Then watch the results. Hoping and praying your numbers don't come up.

It's brilliant. Got the first three numbers once, and I thought my heart was going to explode.

This is a great idea.
And if I didn't do the lottery then it would appeal to my masochistic side.

This also works
if you have forgotten to buy a ticket, and you've had the same numbers since day 1

When the Lottery first started
Girl at Uni won £20, w00t!

Two x £10 wins for three numbers on two separate lines.

She was really pleased.

Until we pointed out that between those two lines she had all six numbers drawn, and had they been on the same line she'd have won £3 million or so.

She wasn't so happy about her £20 win after that.

Brilliant
All of the down side of the lotto without besmirching yourself with the upside!
