View Full Version : Lucky or not Lucky, that is the question?

Yesterday, Lady Luck sent me a present - a 6 of a kind scratcher.

Today, CC Scratcher being jealous did the same for me - another 6 of a kind scratcher.

People would think that I am the most luckiest man on earth.

But wait, I forgot to mention the 2 6 of a kind was 6 of a different kind.

That would now make me the most unlucky man alive.

But wait, I heard that the odds of getting 6 of a different kind are pretty high, let alone 2 days in a row. That should be insane luck.

To top it off, this is the 3rd time I'm getting 6 of a different kind in my 118 scratcher from CC, and not 1 6 of same kind for me yet.

So, what do you think. Lucky or Not Lucky. That is the question?

The odds of getting 6 of the same icon is .000129. Odds of getting 6 unique icons is .0154. Not at all equal.

What of the odds 2 days in a row?

Red Baron is a first WW Hero.

That would be the square of the odds of it happening once.

Well, he killed a bunch of people in the Kaiser's attempt to take over Europe... but po-tay-to, po-tah-to, huh?

Not too bad. Considering it at 0.00023716.

You know the odds of getting "Car, Car, Gun, Melee, Cash, Respect" is SIX TIMES harder than getting a 6x item? I must be the unluckiest guy alive this morning! Can you believe I opened a scratcher that only pops up once in 127 years, and I got a crappy car out of it? That's such crap!

I'm not very good with math, but I still feel 2 6 of different kind is a sign of good luck. Only that, I hope I'm not that lucky again.

Yes...yes you should
