Turbo Cash #1713 Continues On Top

Nine more days and still no Grand Prize winners for Turbo Cash #1713. Forty-Eight percent of the tickets are left to be sold and all three Grand Prizes of $250,000 remain to be claimed.

Best $1- $2 Game - Snow Globe
Best $3 - $5 Game - Instant Millions



Instant Millions is running a strong second choice and the $1 million Grand Prizes may attract players. Of course, there is a trade off at the lower end of the prize structure.

The best $1000 win value play is Golden Goose but there are no Grand Prizes left for that game so it should be avoided. The next best game is $3 - Keno #1410 with 195 prizes of $1000 or more left to be claimed from 76% of the 4,896,000 tickets that were produced.

The best pure odds to win a Grand Prize is our game of choice with a 230,000:1 chance to win $250,000. Beware the $10 ticket cost, however.

Overall ticket sales continue to edge up as we approach Christmas. Lots of folks seemingly cannot wait until the day as they are scratching and winning prizes in the seasonal games. Discipline players, please!

Jay from Scarborough has indicated that he does not like my evaluation system which is based upon winning the Grand Prize. He says that he knows that he will never win a grand prize and instead he wants to know what the best chances are to win anything more than the cost of the ticket. If you have any comments in this regard, please share them on the blog. The new year is coming and I'd be happy to add or alter the current methodology.

Comings and Goings


Our old favourite, Keno #1409 has been retired. There was one Grand Prize remaining to be claimed and 18% of the tickets were left at the point of cancellation. Jacks are Wild was also retired. It was our game of choice for a while. It had 2 Grand Prizes remaining and 12% of the tickets left as of the end of its run. Why not let that game run until someone wins one or both of those prizes? Golden Goose with no Grand Prizes left continues to be sold with 33% of its tickets left.

$2 Bonus Banco was introduced this week. The game is interesting as it only has a 33% house take. Most $1-$2 games have a house take of 40%. Chances to win a prize more than the $2 you paid are 6:1. That's pretty good. Hopefully we will be able to play that game later on.

Personal Play


A discouraging week. Four Turbo Cashes contained two winners and a meager $20. I am now at a cash rate of 36% and a Return on Investment of 52%. I continue to fall behind expectations. I need a $50 winner to bring me back up.


Winners


$25,000 - $100,000 winners this week came from Ottawa (2), Sarnia, Wallaceburg, Sault Ste. Marie, Midland and Thunder Bay. $100,000 and up winners hailed from Maple and Etobicoke. Nice to see a Toronto winner sneak into the group.



Good Luck
Doug
