A Review of Ken Silver's Silver Lotto System: A review of the product positives and negatives:
A system that I believe is perfect for North America´s biggest Lottery ´The California Lottery´


Hi everyone,
My name Is Ronald Osborne and I live in Maipú Nr. Santiago Chile, but was born and raised in Malvern, Worcester, UK, the second eldest of 5 siblings. I am a qualified administrator with over 35 years experience, but also like to make unbiased, comprehensive, honest and hopefully interesting reviews about any subject or product.
Firstly thank you for visiting my review site called ´ California Winning Numbers´.
Note - this is a personal review. If you are looking for Ken Silver´s Silver Lotto website please click here.
Most critical reviews of a lotto system are based on a common misinterpretation - call it urban myth if you like - which states there is no system that can increase your winning odds. Well, let me introduce you to a system that not only works, but does successfully. However there is a downside and I'll come to that shortly.
The Silver Lotto System is unique in the world of lottery systems. Developed by marketing guru Ken Silver in the early 1990's, the system was sold successfully in New Zealand for several years before it took off around the world with its introduction on the internet in 1995.
What Is The Secret To This Winning System?
Ken Silver makes it very clear on the Silver Lotto System website (http://www.silverlotto.com) and in the thousands of newsletters he has produced over the years that he does not have a 'secret' system for winning lotto.
His system is simple to understand and fill out, but complex to discover how it works exactly. However you don't need that knowledge - just go ahead and fill out using the easy instructions and don't worry about the mechanism running underneath. The Silver Lotto System works by removing or avoiding the statistical number combinations that will never get a win (think a number sequence like 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6).
There are at least 80% of 'bad' number combinations that can be removed by the basic System. That means you can win 8 out of every 10 games if you play enough tickets, and Ken Silver spends about $60 a game to do this. He does says that the advantage in his system is still maintained even though you might only spend $10-20 a game, but the odds are proportionately lower.
What´s included in the System?
The basic system consists of a 51 page PDF manual with plenty of information to play any game in the world with 5-7 balls and up to 69 numbers. The first quarter of the Silver Lotto System manual is spent talking about lotto in general, and then a brief description of the system is set out in the second quarter. The worksheets and basic instructions for the world’s games occupy the rest of the book.
So, in short, there is very little to read, and the setting out is easy with illustrations so that you are not confused. (In case you do not like the figure work, he also customizes your numbers for you for $37 here.
The downside is that you need to play more than 5 lines a game if you are to get a decent win. Ken says that you probably need to play $20 a game minimum, though of course you can take a month to save that amount up if you don't have it.
Where's The Proof and Does it Work?
For years I've read all sorts of comments around the lottery forums about systems, and it is obvious that most so-called experts cannot believe that a system like this can work as well as it does. Ken Silver has many success stories on his website, with wins from $3.2 million down to hundreds of dollars. His critics don't have any success in the same league. Therefore it's safe to assume that they haven't tried it, or are not speaking from experience.
My opinion is that these experts are more concerned with complex numbering systems and are caught up with probability and statistics (neither are important, since the number combinations only follow basic patterns and start fresh each time). The secrets of success are in the number of people who have won money with the Silver Lotto System, and there are a lot of them.
How to Work the Silver Lotto System
You will need about half an hour to set up your numbers after reading the part of the manual which applies to your game. It is just a matter of transferring numbers within certain ranges onto your lottery coupons in the right order, and it's very easy to do.
There is a Genuine 'Secret' Of the System
One of the most important parts of the system which is not well-known to those who are about to buy it, is that when you fill out your tickets (that's the coupons which you get at your lotto store); you don't have to do it again at all. You keep using these same Silver Lotto System tickets until you win a major prize, and then you can throw them away and start again with a new set.
How to Get Bigger Wins
You can also increase your chances by more than the 80% Ken Silver claims simply by combining several of his products. The Silver Lotto PRO System (http://www.silverlottopro.com) is a good example. This product incorporates the Silver Lotto System, Lotto-80 System and Custom Profiles, and will apparently take your odds to around 99%. Ken Silver says that he wins 99% of the lottery games he plays each week.
In Conclusion:
On the plus side:
- A system that actually works
- Low cost, around $40 on special
- Chance to use it with low sums of money, (perfect for the California Lottery)
- Only fill out tickets once ever
- Is not wheeling (wasteful)
- Great support. Ken puts out a daily e-zine and has a daily blog full of tips:

- Has been running since 1991.
On the negative side:
