There is no difference in which set of numbers you pick. The only thing affecting you likelihood of winning the lottery over a set period of time is the amount of unique tickets you buy within that time.
To clarify, by “unique” I mean that participating in *one draw* with two tickets betting on the same number isn’t going to increase your chances.
