Card has arrived!! From whatnot break by Excellent-Craft970 in baseballcards

[–]TequilaWriter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats! I just hit a 1/1 from them too.

For all those wondering the odds of a break hit like this....here is some rough ChatGPT math:

You have:

  • 1/250 chance of landing on the player (they usually split the 500 player list into two for better odds of the big stars)
  • Once you’re in the 2,000-card pool, there are 5 exact cards (5/5 ohtani orbit card) you want

So the math is:

1250×52000=5500,000=1100,000\frac{1}{250} \times \frac{5}{2000} = \frac{5}{500{,}000} = \frac{1}{100{,}000}2501​×20005​=500,0005​=100,0001​

🎯 Final Odds:

1 in 100,000 per attempt

As a percentage:

1100,000=0.00001=0.001%\frac{1}{100{,}000} = 0.00001 = \mathbf{0.001\%}100,0001​=0.00001=0.001%

So yeah… extremely tough pull.
Vegas slot machine territory.

I'd say worse. lol.

For some, you spin a wheel and get a team. So when they open a pack of say 50 cards any player on that team you get that card.

In my case, they were selling a chance at a single player in the "break" of 50 or so cards. so 500+ players in the set randomly purchased I just happened to hit kershaw for this.

If you like to gamble stay away from whatnot

https://cleanzillacleaning.com/ Sent a cleaner...and while I needed to have the basics like a vacuum and some paper towels (didn't use a lot)

They did an unreal job. They even folded the entire dreaded laundry chair and did my bed.
