That depends. Is the 10x10 grid numbered 0–9 before you choose your squares, or are the column numbers being selected afterward?

If it’s the former, the simplest strategy is to go with 0s, 7s, and (to a lesser extent) 3s. According to a Harvard study of NFL postseason games, those are the luckiest numbers by quarter. Getting a little fancier, try to choose 0s for the underdogs and 7s for the favorites. Avoid 2s, 5s, 8s, and 9s—thinking about football scores, which most commonly raise by either three or seven, this makes sense.

If you’re choosing randomly, there’s a lot less you can do. To maximize your chance of winning something, try to ensure each of your squares has a unique row and column. To throw a hail mary and try to win big, pick as many squares in a single column as the game allows.
