Lotto thoughts

Lotto thoughts
If the many world interoperation is correct. Does that mean for every lotto draw, every possible number combination takes place somewhere in the multi universe? Does lotto 6 49 and super 7 (two major Canadian lotteries) create millions of timelines?
Every time I buy a lotto ticket, does a version of me win somewhere in the muliuniverse?
What do you people think?

Since there is no natural law that forbids any specific combinations from being drawn - yes. If two universes are created depending on whether I will move my little finger or not, there will be created millions of universes 'cause of a single lottery. And if you played (one of your versions will do), one of your versions will win. Too bad they can't help you. And even if they could, there wouldn't be enough for all of your versions.

Moreover, chance that you randomly jump in universe, where you are the winner is very small (considering, there is possibility to travel to such worlds) - and is equal to a chance that you win here
