Research has shown that men gamble on the lottery more than women, with a significant difference in the number of days they play.

The 2012 studies from the University of Buffalo reveal that men had a 64% increase over women in lottery participation days.

However, regional studies like those from Oregon and Vermont, sometimes point to more female players.

This suggests that while men generally play the lottery more frequently, the trend can vary by location and specific lottery games​​.

This pattern holds true across different lottery types, including state and multi-state lotteries like Mega Millions and Powerball.
