It's not that far off-track from the old PowerPlay average of 3.8

rip:There are equal numbers of 2x, 3x, 4x, and 5x. Therefore the average multiplier is 3.5x.

Watching the way the Powerplay option hits for a while is going to be worth the price of admission. That 4x is encouraging, but it will be interesting to see whether there are long runs of 2x., since 3 seems to be an awfully popular number in the digit draws. I've stopped buying it for a while, maybe for good, but I'll be open minded. If it averages 3x as it should it might be worth buying one of occasionally.Jack
