  Have not heard about this but we could use a new $10 scratcher.

  Cash Bonanza is down to 1 jackpot, Casino Action sucks , LFL $10 no one ever wins the jackpot and $200 MS is a reprinted game.

  2018 Biggest Win: $500 (multiple times but who cares about $500 right?)

  All time Biggest Win: $4K ($5 Green & Gold)

  They've been advertising it for about a week. I'm only guessing it will be a $10.00 ticket.

  This is a 10.00 ticket.  It looked cool, i thought it might be coming out March 21st but another store seemed to think it was coming out next week and they said 4 new games were coming out.  we'll see.

  Me too, I avoided Black Pearls.  I think partly because I got burned on FL Black too.  I also, think I shouldn't have played the NBA MAgic and instead could have maybe sent all the money towards finding the last Golden Goose jackpot.  (even tho I dont love that game either but might have felt better searching for 250K rather than hoping for a stinky basketball and only a chance at 100K on NBA.)

  For some reason I'm drawn to the coming 10.00 ticket Color of Money. (at least from the print out I saw) I'll have to check the odds.

  @ James- no the link is not up yet. I only heard about this new game on the radio. I think it will be a brightly colored ticket because they mentioned rainbows in the ad.

  @wish ---I never played Black either, so glad too, because not a winner not even close to me.

  I don't think the NBA games are worth playing either.

  I might just buy a book of a new scratcher right when it is released and forget playing the old stuff.

  It is a $10 indeed. I saw a flyer up at my local Publix. The guys at the store also told me it would be next Tuesday, not sure how accurate that is though

  Anyone want to guess the overall odds on the new ticket ? I say 1 in 3.60

  If it is reasonable 1 in 3.2 - 3.3 I might grab a book.

  I'll throw in my guess at 3.1 to 3.3.  If they are smart.  I would think the lottery would see that Casino Action isn't moving quickly and if they want this one to move they would put 3.1 or even a little better on it and I have a feeling it would sell very well.

  Saw the add today they told me it will be for sale next week. The ticket offers a instant win symbol , a double win symbol and a 10X symbol for 10 times the prize. 

  I was expecting a "WIN ALL" symbol but there wont be one. Very funky looking ticket.

  Here is what the FL lottery site has posted :

   

  Odds on this game are:

  Overall Odds: 1-in-3.379

   

  Odds of Winning

  		$700,000.00	1-in-854,700.86
  		$10,000.00	1-in-58,411.22
  		$1,000.00	1-in-11,897.68
  		$500.00	1-in-1,195.7
  		$200.00	1-in-1,198.48
  		$150.00	1-in-1,204.95
  		$100.00	1-in-92.23
  		$50.00	1-in-168.52
  		$40.00	1-in-240
  		$30.00	1-in-120.04
  		$25.00	1-in-71.41
  		$20.00	1-in-15
  		$15.00	1-in-15
  		$10.00	1-in-8.57

   

  What is strange is that the ticket itself says: Win up to $1,000,000 but the odds are showing only $700,000. I'm thinking it was a typo. Hopefully the odds are the same for $1 Mil vs $700,000. I have noticed that the FL lottery has misprinted the top prize info before on their site. Let's hope the odds are actually for $1 Million, and not $700,000.
