I got NINE OUT OF TEN words, Ten being the maximum, on a word game scratch off!!!!
I won 5000 bucks. The tenth word was worth 1 million.
I did the math based on the odds, and they made THREE HUNDRED AND SIXTY THOUSAND for every 5k prize they paid out!!!
Black/Red blows that AWAY!!!!
heck, picking one number out of 36 on roulette blows that away!!!
the odds are worse than any underground casino I’ve ever hear of. they had them in Brooklyn when I was much younger, about 25 years ago
I played the undergound casinos back in college just like The Gambler. But I didn;t have the thousand, just “a few’ to get in. I never played the roulette because it could be rigged but the blackjack table was easy pickings because the dealers were amateurs and not pros like in an actually casino.
Also the scratch cards are a ripoff because they post the odds of a “winner” on the back of the ticket, but they count getting a free ticket as a winner. In actuality if you are just getting back the exact same amount as you put down you did not “win”. So when they say 1 out of every 4 cards is a winner it is probably more like 1 in every 12 since a couple of those winners are just free ticket.
Total ripoff.
