Two of the 16 top Crossword #1298 prizes were claimed last week knocking the game out of top spot. The new recommended play is Turbo Cash #1713. All three $250,000 Grand Prizes remain outstanding after 27% of the tickets have been sold. Overall, one ticket in 3.13 is a "winner". If you don't consider getting your money back being a winner, One ticket in 5.56 wins more than the cost of the ticket.
It's tough when the top game is a $10 game. It seems that you get far less for your money. Remember, the more the cost of the ticket, the less the take out by OLG. $1 and $2 games have a take out of about 40%. $3-$5 tickets have a take out of 35% and $10-$20 tickets have a take out of about 30%. The important thing to do is to stay within your budget. Remember: you're the boss.
Best $1 - $2 game - Go Bananas #1690
Best $3 - $5 game - Instant Millions #1683
Although this blog recommends games, there are different ways of analyzing the available games. For example, the Instant 649 #1704 has the best chance to win a grand prize at 72,000:1 to win $100,000 for a $5 Ticket. For Turbo Cash, players currently have one chance in 347,000 to win $250,000 for a $10 ticket. By another measure, players have one chance in 9.27 to win more than the cost of ticket in the Instant 649 game versus 1 in 5.56 for Turbo Cash. What's your fancy?
The top selling game was Crossword #1298 with sales of over 200,000 ticket per day. That represents about one third of all tickets sold.
Comings and Goings
Mercifully, OLG canceled More Lucky Lines #1651 this week. The game had been moribund for several weeks. Twenty three percent of the tickets remained to be sold. Why does the OLG make this decision while continuing to sell Horse Shoes and Cross Xpress? Each of those games has less tickets left to be sold than More Lucky Lines and all of their Grand Prizes have also been claimed. Buyer beware!
$3 Super Bingo #3011 was introduced this week. Resist the temptation. We may get to play it in time.
The following prizes of $50,000 were claimed this week:
Bingo #3007 - $50,000 - Hamilton
Keno #1409 - $50,000 - Brampton
CrossTripler #1703 - $100,000 - Belleville
Crossword #1298 - $50,000 - Peterborough
Extravaganza #1709 - $50,000 - Owen Sound
What does it take for someone in Toronto to win a Grand Prize?
Personal Play
A breakdown in discipline took place this week. I bought 10 Crossword tickets! Five of them were winners but my return was a measly $19. Still, my numbers are heading north. I have now cashed 36% of the tickets purchased (very good) and my return on investment stands at 49% (poor). There has to be a $100 ticket hiding in my future some time soon.
Good Luck
