Common mistakes to avoid when playing lottery games
When playing the lottery, it is crucial to avoid certain mistakes that can reduce your chances of winning.
Without going any further, one of the most typical is to choose numbers based on birthdays or anniversaries. This limits the selection of numbers to only those between 1 and 31, so many others are discarded and ignored and could potentially be winners.
Another common mistake is not checking the lottery results properly. Certain minor prizes that could have been won may slip through the cracks. Also, it is important to check lottery tickets carefully (it would not be the first time that some players discard prize tickets).
Finally, it is advisable to avoid depending solely on luck. Although the lottery is a game of chance, there are certain rules and guidelines as we mentioned above that can increase the chances of winning.
How to claim your New York lottery prizes
If you are a winner, claiming your New York Lottery prize is a simple process, but some instructions must be followed to receive full payment without inconvenience.
For prizes up to $600, prizes can be cashed directly at any authorized New York Lottery location. For larger prizes, a claim form must be completed and accompanied by the winning ticket at the New York Lottery headquarters in Schenectady or any New York Lottery regional branch.
Remember that lottery winnings are subject to federal and state taxes, so a portion of them will go to taxes.

Other notable winners include a Brooklyn man who won $298 million in Powerball in 2019 and a Queens man who won $343.9 million in Mega Millions in 2018.
