Probability of winning with multiple ticketsReply
Tucker Black, You're getting in your own way with odds, probabilities, etc. ad nauseam. Speaking of flipping coins the Park casino in Vegas had a very popular game, two females would toss two coins and the bets were two heads, two tales and one of each. PS, 292 divided by 2 and 2 divided by 292 have vastly different answers.

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.

Tucker Black, Since you say you work in a casino I'll take a real wild guess that you are far removed from the action. You have a problem realizing that someone who plays $3000 and wins $2000 Is STUCK $1000. No matter what flaky definition or explanation you try to come up with they are STUCK $1000. Stick to accounting or whatever you do because you have not got a clue about gambling results. STUCK means amount lost, also known as 'in the hole'.

You said a bet that is guaranteed to win. In the lottery, slots, and live keno, any bet that pays the gambler something is called a win . It is only in table games, and not the progressive side bets where the wins are stated as for 1 rather than to 1 , that a win is defined to be a net win. As you know, for winning bets, the dealer takes chips out of the tray and hands them to the player and leaves the original bet in place. This is done purely for convenience.

Did the tax threshold just increase?
I know that the limit for hand pays on casino slots went from 1200$ to 2000$ on January 1st but did the limit on lottery go from 500 to 2000 this year also? I keep getting AI gibberish when I search so I'm not sure.

Oh, okay, so my degree in mathematics was pointless. All those books I read and proofs I did are just alternative facts and some casino dealer knows the real deal. Whatever. I don't understand why you and Lotterologist don't get along. Both of you believe in alternative math.

I worked in casinos in table games for over 20 years, please don't try to tell me about good and bad gamblers. Any game that awards $6M for $2 is ok with me, but coming up with 8 out of 86 sounds like another one of your theories. Does such a game even exist? There are very few players considered to be a feared player, most casino players are considered to be ' came to stay not to play', as in instead of pressing their bets when winning they'll keep making low bets and just grind it out.
