What are the odds of winning the lottery every Saturday and Wednesday for a year?

The chance of winning either the Saturday or the Wednesday national lottery in Britain is just over 14 million to 1.
To win on Saturday and Wednesday is 14 million x 14 million = 196 Million Million (a million million is 12 zeros which is a billion everywhere outside of the United States. which is a Trillion).
But we're in Britain - so the chances of winning Saturday and Wednesday would be 196 Billion to 1. This is just one week....
The chances of winning both Wednesday and Saturday for a whole year are astronomical. 196 billion multiplied by itself 52 times....
That number is:
1.57512749 × 10743
To put this in persepctive, this means - that if the age of the universe is approximately 14 billion years old - even if you played the lottery every Wednesday and Saturday for the entire life of the universe. You still got a less than 1-10 chance of pulling it off in ONE week let alone 52. (Assuming you buy one ticket).
The best thing to do is buy every ticket and you're guaranteed to win the prize and freak your friends out with your spooky powers... ;-)

That is because whoever organizes the lottery - or another game of luck, for that matter - will calculate the probabilities so that they win - at least in the long term. As a result, if you pick every number combination, you would spend more than the total prizes.
