After taking a week off, Bonus Cash For Life returns to take top billing. An estimated 13% of the float remains while 2 of the initial 5 Grand Prizes remain to be claimed. Your chance to win one is slightly more than 600,000 to 1. That is pretty good to win a $675,000 prize when you consider that you can expect to get a return of 56.5% of your money even if you don't win a prize of $100 or more.
A new $10 Interprovincial game, Classic Ruby was introduced. It is a little low on the top end and a few too many "Win your Money Back" prizes for my liking but it does come out OK according to the formula I use. There are 6 - $500,000 Grand Prizes but your chances to win one are currently over 1 million to 1. Watch.
I'm looking to change my evaluation method. After reading comments from folks I find that I need to provide more emphasis on smaller prizes. We all know that we would never buy a ticket for a game for which all the Grand Prizes had been claimed nor would we buy a ticket for a game for which all the money went to one Grand Prize winner. More next week.
I am reading with interest the comments from those who are playing on PlayOLG, the on-line casino. Keep them coming.
I noticed that the game sheet for Double Cash For Life indicates that the total return for the game is 69.63%. When one crunches the numbers it only totals 64.6%. A call to the OLG resulted in a return call from a very helpful employee, Sam. Same tells me that the Marketing Department has provided him with and explanation that makes no sense to me. He sent the inquiry back to the Marketing Department so they can have another try. Stay tuned.
Best to All.

An encouraging start to the year was met with an immediate dip. I won $11 on 3 Cashingo Tickets and $6 on 3 Holiday Cashout tickets but the three big Holiday Spectacular Tickets were all duds. Very disappointing.In Conclusion

You're the best Doug keep it up! Question I have odd luck so instead of picking the best choice for $10 games which would be the least likely for me to win out of ruby, fortune and holiday?
ReplyDeleteI understand that thinking completely Oddsdontmatter. Of those choices I'd go for Ruby to give myself the greatest chance of losing. Good luck!
DeleteBonus Cash for Life down to 1 grand prize
ReplyDeletehttp://www.olg.ca/lotteries/games/viewInstantTicketInfo.do
2 Ruby's and 1 Caddy, all duds. Sigh.......
ReplyDeleteI wasn't looking for them, but I found some wild 10s. I looked further back in the blog, and back near end of Dec. there were still 22 top prizes of 10K.
ReplyDeleteAnyone have an updated number on this? And prizes left to win that were <10K ????????????
I know it was removed from the unclaimed list a while ago haha
Anonymous,
DeleteYou can call the OLG to get updated numbers. There were 20 left as of 1 January 2015.
Doug
So much for equal prize distribution when reading up on two bejeweled grand prizes and a secondary prize all claimed in Hamilton. eff you olg.
ReplyDeletePlayed Roulette on playolg this a.m. and won $300. Woo hoo!
ReplyDeleteUpdate: lost that $300 plus another $300. Crap!
DeleteI was cheering for you..darn..
Deleteyou inspired me to give the European roulette a try..im a member of an online sports book that offers casino games so I gave it a try for the first time and im up about $200 over the last few days...but like all house games I expect they will get me in the end also..good luck if you try again .
I am going to try the site tonight but hoping for good things!
DeleteIsn't that typical of the olg? Let you win a few bucks then take it alllll back with a vengeance! I find it is the same thing with scratch tickets. when a new game is released there are a lot of small winners in the first few packs, but the further along they go they just take it all back plus more
Deletejust found out that olg still doesn't have CIBC on board! So sad :( They said they are still waiting to add more banks...they definitely need cibc...
DeleteHi Anonymous\
DeleteHave you played Black Jack on OLG? Roulette has the worst odds of any online game, that use to be my game of choice and I've studied a lot of different ways to play Roulette and it's challenging to say the least.
I may drop some money on Black Jack latter today but the issue with Black Jack is there's no Surrender button and somehow you end up with 16 a lot of times and your playing with 6 decks which sucks. Good luck everyone this week.
Any luck with the Black Jack this afternoon Shelley? I have been thinking of signing up and doing the same, but am nervous about the conveniently high amounts of 16's as you've mentioned. The 6 decks seems consistent with the video blackjack tables they have setup at RCR here in Ottawa which I have found some success at recently. Just very interesting they don't offer a Surrender option.
DeleteDo you know how many times they will let you split? At RCR it's a max of two hands - guessing the same here?
Hope you had some good luck this today!
Hi AJ
DeleteI didn't manage to play Black Jack today, up near Peterborough at the Slots there is one computerized black jack table, each person at the table gets there own shoe of 6 decks but they do have a surrender button which has saved my butt a few times....lol
I'm not sure how many times you can split, I've played it in fun mode but not sure if it will be the same once you start playing for money. I do know you can play I think 3 different hands at once. Sign up and just play in the Fun Mode to get a feel for it. I swear they track how your playing so the next time you log in and start playing the same game they've got you all figured out...lol
I am going to hopefully get on tomorrow night and give it a go. I think also with Bonuses you have to call them to tell them you don't want the bonus the play through is retarded and so not worth it.
I will keep you posted, minimum bet is $1.00 as well. At least with Surrender you get half your bet back instead of losing all of it and then there's insurance to decide on....lol
Let us know if you sign up and play.
Good Luck AJ
Thanks for the info Shelley! Those are probably the same tablets as RCR - guess I have an excuse to whip over to Peterborough for something to do next time I am in the valley in a few weeks.
DeleteAs for the online, I gave it a go, however it turns out that my net is ineligible right now as they can't verify that I am currently in Ontario. Apparently satellite service does have it's drawbacks! Guess I'll be waiting to jump into things and watching how everyone else on here does.

no tickets can be activated after jan 09
Previous activated tickets are still good.
..new game coming $3 1798 wordsfreinds..
Gl everyone
I'm guessing the new ticket is going to be a spin off of the "Words with Friends" app, Thought I don't know why they need more word games when they have scrabble and crossword unless this one is going to have a different concept.
DeleteThat's lucky lines express although I wish they'd get rid of both lucky lines.

Hi CL66
DeleteTook your advice on the Top Rated games and bought a Cadillac Card and won 50.00...Yeah
I'm not doing good at all on the $5.00 crosswords at all. I'm looking forward to the new $.300 game that they will be bringing out in Feb.
Hope everyone has a great weekend.
Nice win Shelley - i`m always pleased to have had a small part in anybodys win - i haven't done well with both Crossword Tripler's the last few weeks, but i did get $20 today on the match 3 - i don't like ANY of the current $3 tickets, so $5's + $10's is what i`m playing - with whatever i post and when i post it, if anybody has any views on that, i`m open to suggestions ^_^
DeleteThanks for this update, CL66!
ReplyDeleteYour welcome (^_^) - good luck to you!
DeleteThis week one Ruby and one Bejeweled struck out for me.
ReplyDeleteSorry crossword trippler not being kind to all.
ReplyDeleteI have had awesome luck, I won $50 on one of the new pink ones, I shah played 7 orange, won: $5x3 ($15), $10x3 ($30), and $10. Total $105 win, $40 spent, up $65.
Can't decide if I should continue with the orange tripplers or scoop up some Christmas spectaculars that I know exist.... Odds f winning something $100 or better is 1 in 415, pretty amazing, who knows if they printed the last batch...
My wife had a good winning streak on them but it's dried up lately.
DeleteI've bought 40 triplers from different locations in my city over the past two weeks and was 6/40. I am getting sick of that game as u can see lol
DeleteI`m going to post a updated full list of 2x-5x "or more" on your $ and i thought to explain why i use that term. In my view, i look for a "goal" amount to hope to "at least" win as opposed to a specific amount to win, when deciding what ticket to get. I won $25 today on a $10 Classic Ruby. The odds to win that are 1 in 96, but the odds to win $25 or more, are 1 in 11.6. This is due to the fact there were, at the games start, 521,964 prizes over $25. I think it should not be overlooked, that which you might also win. Odds posted by the OLG for scratch tickets are only for a specific prize amount. The odds i post here will always be "or more", in a hope to give a "bigger picture" to everyone, in helping you decide what to play. (^_^)

Bought 8 of the orange crossword triplers, first one ticket #49 I scratch 3 symbols match for 20 bucks, second one I do #50 6 black words for $100 plus the triplet for a $300 dollar win! First time I've ever had a tripler pay me more then $50!!
ReplyDeleteI'd like to ask...out of the 8 tickets, were those the only two winners?
Deleteticket #47 was a $5 win your money back but #46, #48, #51, #52 & #53 were duds. it was house money at that time but I get what you are saying. the fact I hit a 20 then a 300 on back to back tickets should mean a long string of losers
DeleteYay!! That's so exciting! What are you going to do with your $$? :)
ReplyDeleteI bought 60 more orange triplers! Lol jk, just put it in the bank for some bills and stuff. the 6 other tickets produced only 1 $5 winner but frankly it was all bonus after
DeleteHa!! What a thrill, eh? To scratch and see the word "TRIPLE" appear! Thanks for the inspiration. :)
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone know how many tickets are in a pack of the orange tripplers???? Probably around 100? Only seen the numbers on the cards in the 40s
ReplyDeleteLet me congratulate the CrossTripler winner from M'Chigeeng, ON. No, I'm not being sarcastic. According to Wiki (which everyone knows is 100% factual ), "M'Chigeeng First Nation, also known as West Bay... Total registered population as of September, 2007, was 2251 people, of which their on-reserve population was 882."
ReplyDeleteIn all fairness, the top prizes should be available no matter where you are. I have no problem with small town or rural area winners. Still, the numbers don't seem to match the sales and I find that disturbing. I know the OLG will probably wash their hands of this saying that all printing and distribution has been outsourced. I just want readers to keep in mind that the odds might not be what they appear to be, especially when it comes to the jackpots.
Tommy,
DeleteYou're fuelling my conspiratorial mind. Stop it!
Doug
LOL!
DeleteTmF
$2 holiday cash out and $10 spectacular is tough to find. Although 20x lucky has been decent for me. 6 tickets net me 2x $20 and a $5.
ReplyDeleteYes along with bonus cfl seems to be drying up also..myself I've only played a few 20 x lucky and a few orange crossword tripler and some double cfl. .no decent wins more than cost of ticket prizes..if I found some spectacular I'd buy them up right away..
DeleteThere is only one place left near me with spectacular. and, they have 10 of them! Needless to say this place is shady and does not get frequented a lot by people so they should still be available until I put aside $100 to buy them!
DeleteI was in this gas station i bought 2 spectaculars and both were winners, $110 and $20
DeleteI know people aren't fans of scrabble... bc they're aren't really any big prizes left.( one 75k and one 15k) ..but odds are still about 1/2215 to win a prize greater equal to or greater than $100, for a $3 ticket I will take it.
ReplyDeleteFor the orange crossword trippler, the odds of winning a prize $100 or greater is comparable at 1/2100, for $5 this is still a good option. Perhaps better that scrabble since there are still FOUR $100 000 prizes left and FOUR $10 000.
Anonymous,
DeleteI like your thinking. You're being an informed player.
Doug
If you can find any, $5 Merry Money Multiplier has the better odds at winning $100 or more at 1 in 661 / $5 Hit The Jackpot has odds of 1 in 1,230 to win $250 or more and offers 3 $100,000 grand prizes
DeleteI got $100 on Bejeweled.
