It makes no difference whatsoever what set of numbers you play or the frequency of which you play them

It makes no difference on your probability of winning -- it does make a difference on the value of a win. Several studies have shown that players who have "regular" numbers use birth and anniversary dates -- so the numbers 1 through 31 are played more frequently. When smaller numbers are drawn, there are more frequent wins -- when larger numbers are drawn, wins are less frequent. There are fewer split jackpots (multiple winners) when larger numbers are drawn.
