Nope. The odds are the same whether you pick the same or different numbers every time.
You can affect your odds of having a big win. Don't pick popular combinations. That way, if you win the jackpot, you will have to share it with fewer people.
One time in the UK lottery, with the top prize in the £16 million pound range, it was won by 133 people, so instead of winning millions, they each got about £120,000.
