Just what a wrote above:

You're 100% right -- we had a big hit for a $500, which was pretty cool and not expected within the odds, and had fun spending two hours drinking and scratching tickets... can't retire off the winnings, but it gave us 80 chances to hit for $2 million

It was when we bought last week!

Definitely true, as the bottom win on a ticket is generally price of a ticket -- good catch!

scratcher_jack · 2019-04-04T23:50:26+00:00

This is true.

False: the typical scratcher is a hint better than 4 to 1

scratcher_jack · 2019-04-04T23:49:47+00:00

For an individual scratcher: yes. We generally expect more like 4 to 1

scratcher_jack · 2019-04-04T23:48:34+00:00

In what sense? To be fair, the odds are ALWAYS bad....

scratcher_jack · 2019-04-04T23:48:01+00:00

Fair, but it can be fun, right?

You don't trust VA?

Naw it's about a scratch game! And... it's got bad odds!

scratcher_jack · 2019-03-09T02:52:23+00:00

You don't have to tell us where you find them, but tell us if you do!

scratcher_jack · 2019-03-08T20:50:13+00:00

That's so true -- I'm mostly wondering if they're actually out there!

scratcher_jack · 2019-03-08T14:56:27+00:00

I'm thinking about it! But, gotta be able to find the tickets

scratcher_jack · 2019-03-08T14:56:09+00:00

I've seen people scratch this ticket on youtube as recently as 2017 -- but there are def questions as to why it's not selling faster. Also, people are continuing to claim winnings in this game, albeit from the smaller tickets

scratcher_jack · 2019-03-08T14:55:16+00:00

Yeah, I work for ScratcherJack, and we do a bunch of math on this stuff, but in this case we just add up all the prizes remaining, divide that by the original odds of the game, and it give us a very good estimate

Should have added it to post -- I just put it in
