There are still N possible outcomes, and you have 2 of them instead of 1. Your chance of winning is 2/N instead of 1/N and has exactly doubled.
And most lottery games allow numbers to be re-used, so you haven't "eliminated" anything. If you exhaustively bought all N number combinations, you have a 100% chance of winning, but you also have a decent chance to split the pot with someone else who also bought the winning numbers.
Next time your family screams and shouts at you that you're wrong, maybe you should actually listen to what they're saying?
