I’m not really a gambler but do play lotto and euro millions when I can remember or be arsed

Last night was in garage guy in front bought two five pound scratch cards so I decided I’d buy one of the same ones

Took it home won a tenner doubled my money went back today got two more of the same, just won a tenner on one and nothing on the other one.

What to do next
Buy two more?
Don’t buy any and take the tenner meaning five pounds profit?
Buy one and keep the original 5 pounds stake.?

Generally I think the "rule of thumb" is if you win a small amount like up to £20 you might as well get more tickets or scratchers, but it's up to you obviously!

I have never bought a scratchcard that costs over £1.
My advice? Keep the fiver.

i've never won a lot on the weekly lottery and it is very infrequent when I do win. I've found the "set for life" game gives a better return and at least doesnt feel like a complete con :laugh:
