I've got $300 in my pocket. Should I buy groceries or 3 scratch off tickets? Decisions, decisions.

There's no Casinos in Texas, so I think this is intended to compete with the neighboring states Casino Sportbooks, and the High Limit Slot Machines. This is for the High Limit gamblers.

I'll probably buy a pack. kind of annoyed right now, bought two packs of 1838 and won only the guaranteed amount. I've bought bunches of those packs over last couple years and not one has yielded more than the guaranteed amount. sucker that I am, keep buying it. ugh. I posted in the scratch offs forum about this ticket a couple weeks ago. I am waiting to see if a winner comes forth anytime soon so i can eliminate some pack ranges but I have a feeling it's going to be a slow pace on it, it's horr... [ More ]

There are People who are buying the Texas $100 scratch-offs. It is a bunch of people on Youtube who have bought them. Some have even bought the entire book which is 15 tickets for $1500. A few people have bought just one ticket to see how it is. One lady bought one ticket and did not win anything so she said she is done with that one. She will stick to the $10 tickets

Texas was considering legal casinos at one point. There are illegal gamerooms everywhere, Its no secret. You will see Texans at casinos in all neighboring states. Oklahoma, New Mexico and Lousiana. Instead of passing legislation for legal casinos they opt to give us 100 dollar scratch tickets. Lol

omgosh. i agree. i mean, why even make a scratch-off at$50.00 to 100.00 if you're giving out more per state $10.00 win,that's not right. I also notice aloto f the 10 buck wins, on a 20 BUCK SCRATCH-OFF in NC, i don't get it. At least give the person investing 20 bucks, their twenty bucks back, not LOWER it smdh.

I know. some 1 in tx, was mentioning this to me, and i was telling my loved one out there, he isn't the type to risk this

much, but, he said,

You are CASSIE, but i am sma... [ More ]

Better odds doesn't necessarily mean better playing experience. It usually mean that you win more often the prize equal to the price of the ticket. This game never pays the parity price, it always pays at least 50% more and this is why overall odds are longer than other games .... It is clearly a game for players who enjoy (and can afford) a volatile winning experience (that can mean ... no win at all ....

I've heard over the years that lottery is a tax on the poor. I hear a lot these days, poor people are struggling. Well dayum. In NY, we get a chance to get 10 million for $30. So more than triple the cost , but double the payout?

It's not enough. I'll wait for the $500 scratcher that will offer me 200 million dollars.

I miss the old days of King Kong Bucks....

I am holding in my hand a brand new Jumbo Bucks Premium Edition . It is a $10 ticket. On the back of the ticket the odds are listed at 1 in 3.15, which is BETTER odds than the 1 in 3.49 for the $100 Texas ticket. Someone please tell me how that is possible? By the way the $10 ticket was a loser.

Price for ticket: 100 buckaroos

Priceless: The angry looks from the people in line who can't afford gas let alone a $100 scratch-off

Even if I was in Texas they wouldn't have to worry about me I would never pay even half that much for a scratch off

lol........The vice president says we are thrilled to bring the first $100 scratch ticket to the US. Well, you know who will not be thrilled is first guy who walks in and spends 3 hundred on 3 tickets and walks out with nothing. For that price the odds should be better. 1 in 3.49 are similar to the odds for 20 dollar tickets.

Does Texas use Barcodes for scanning or more secure QRS codes?

OOPS, can't get the medical out of the boy...should say QR codes

I like the idea that the prizes start at $150.

Spending $100 and winning 10 bucks would be kind of a bummer.
