Probability of winning with multiple ticketsReply
If one PB ticket is up against 292.2 million odds and an additional ticket cuts those odds in half (so say you) then every additional tickets cuts the odds of the ticket bought just before it in half, no? As for the books in the casino bookshops they did sell Beat the Dealer and John Scarne books but gamblers tend to be more interested in hype than facts.

1) In what alternative universe do you live where 1,221,759 divided by 5 is 38,719? It's the alternate universe where your odds are inversely proportional to (the number of tickets you bought) ^2. When you say each time you double the number of tickets you buy you cut the odds in half he somehow hears each time you buy another ticket you cut the odds in half. I've cut ther odds of 1,221,759 down to 38,719 so surely I can expect to win somethnig tonight, no? I guess that in that un

I would be shocked if a casino sold books about gambling with any truth in them. They need people to make bad bets. I didn't say each additional ticket cuts the odds in half. I said the odds of you winning is (odds of one ticket winning) divided by (number of tickets). Use my pick 2 example. What are the odds of me winning if I buy 2 tickets? How about 5 tickets?

Each ticket is up against the same odds. Take your theory to PB and MM level. Consider that for every drawing those who play do not realize they are all part of one humongous pool. We'll use odds of 300,000,000 to malt it easier. So if the first ticket is up against 300M and the next ticket is up against 150M, etc. somebody will have twin. Oh, wait, many drawings go by with no jackpot winners. Gee, how can that be because Tucker Black said..................,Go to the Florida lottery website and

There is only one set of winning numbers drawn and each set played is an attempt to match that set. Suppose you only bought one ticket but they drew two sets of numbers? What would that do to the odds? I didn't say each additional ticket cuts the odds in half. That's another part of his inability to understand 3rd grade fractions. He seems to think that we're saying that 2/100ths is twice as much as 1/100th (and might even understand that much) but also thinks that we're saying 2 x
