It’s basically an arms race - you keep trying randomly generated numbers until you get one less than a target. The more you can try the better your chances. Remember you get one chance every 10 minutes and it’s winner takes all.
If you don’t have a large power station doing nothing and a lot of starting capital I’d look at mining one of the alt-coins.

Not "large", but 3.2MW isn't nothing.
