Hey mates, Doug here from Set for Life HQ.  

With October well and truly upon us, the weather’s warming up, the flowers are blooming (and so is my hay fever) and I’m feeling hopeful that we’ll see more people become Set for Life before the year is through.  

I’ve also been inspired to do a bit of a spring clean of this year’s winning statistics.  

Did you know there have been 14 division one wins so far this year, and 121 wins since Set for Life first began. 

If you’re dreaming of scoring $20,000 a month for 20 years, then check out some of 2023’s winning trends!  

‘Hot’ and ‘cold’ numbers 

While every number has an equal chance of being drawn, over time we do see some numbers make an appearance more frequently. Currently, these ‘hot’ numbers are:  

15, 41, 21, 4, 2

On the flip side, the ‘cold’ numbers that have been drawn less frequently are: 

6, 44, 5, 35, 28

Plenty of winners tell us they also like to choose numbers that are special to them, like anniversaries and birthdates, while others prefer a QuickPick. How do you choose your numbers?  

Winning days of the week 

Ok, I’m starting a petition to officially rename the middle of the week, ‘Winning Wednesday’. So far this year, four division one wins have landed on hump day. 

Meanwhile, we’re yet to see anyone become Set for Life on a Friday.  

However, with draws every night of the week, we might see these trends change before the end of the year!  

Day Number of division one wins
Monday 1
Tuesday 1
Wednesday 4
Thursday 3
Friday 0
Saturday 1
Sunday 3
Total 14
State of the nation 

We see Set for Life lightning strike right across the country, but so far 2023 has certainly been a victorious year for New South Wales players.  

Our most recent New South Wales winner was Kingsgrove man, who bolstered the state’s winning tally to five.  

I’m certainly curious to see where our next win will land. 

State/Territory Number of division one wins
NSW / ACT 5
Qld 3
Vic 2
SA 0
NT 0
Tas 0
WA 4
Total 14

Don’t forget, Set for Life is the only game that allows you to play your numbers across seven consecutive draws – that’s a chance to win every day of the week. 

Make sure to grab your entry today. We’d love to add you to our list of 2023 winners!
