as the economy is plunging all over the face of the world,and the inflation of basic goods and commodity is on the rise..the hope for everyone to get ahead of this crisis is somehow put into the hand of luck and of a game of chance such as betting on lotto and other number game prevalent in the philippines which is hueteng as we call it..do you put your bet on this also for luck?

I do bet on Lotto occasionally but not on a regular basis. Maybe I still believe that there are times you are lucky enough to hit the jackpot. But I do not make it a point to become a habit of doing it. Hueteng I am not into those I feel it is just to risky and the reliability of how they pick the winners is not as realiable as the National Lotto where the draw is being shown on TV live so the risk that winners are picked are really random.

Sometime I bet on the lottery if the amount is in hundreds of million peso even though I know that I'm not going to win. I just hope that I will get lucky. But in my 30 years of living I haven't won any raffle . So I guess I'm not lucky in that field

I just bought a lotto ticket last Saturday... and i only got one number right... i don't usually bet... because i consider myself unlucky when it comes to number games... or betting... but i do it from time to time just for fun... since we don't always get bad luck 100%... there are times when our luck will work its magic.. but i just hope mine will do that when i bet again...

luck is luck, so no matter how much you bet if you are lucky you will win. I see nothing wrong with engaging in these past times or sidelines as long as you avoid the dangers and that is becoming obsessed and betting more than what you are willing to lose. In other words "a little betting is fine just make sure it's only a little and stays only a little.

I bet on lotto occasionally when the whim strikes me, but never because I have this strong feeling that I will win. Sometimes, it's exciting to read that the jackpot has reached a certain amount, and for fun the people in our house all place bets. I look at it more in terms of charity because your 10 or 20 pesos can help those that PCSO provides assistance to. Jueteng? Never...

I tried betting on lotto once, but i did not do it again, just i am not used to it. But a lot of people in our place betting on lotto compared to jueting, maybe their trying their luck. Anyway there's no harm in trying but in this kind of game maybe cost a bit.

Hi there arnoldream! I have never been that lucky when it comes to these number games. Well, I did good in some Bingo games I have participated in before. But that's just about it. I have never been that lucky when it comes to lotto or jueteng. I do not want to waste my money on games of chance. Just by looking into the probabilities of winning, I don't think I would ever make it.

Playing the lottery should be taken like a small pastime and not something to be obsess with. As you have mentioned, it is literally a game of luck. However, I have seen a lot of times where punters are literally over obsessed with winning that it became gambling and addiction. Bet for luck - I can go along with this but not gambling obsessively.

I don't believe in anything such luck in this world. I know that some people are that lucky enough to be able to get some money from games like that, but I don't really think that such games would work for me. I see it like a gamble, because I know myself that I am not a lucky person. And since I am not a lucky person, i don't think I would risk a little of hope there. But if for some people it would works, be my guest, I am not against them.
