- The overall odds of winning are the odds of winning ANY prize in a scratch off game.

And yes, this does apply to all scratch-off tickets. Even theones that 'seem' to have an element of skill. So it doesn'tmatter if it is a crossword, Monopoly, word search, pokeror whatever!
How do scratchers work?
Every ticket is either a 'win' or 'lose' the moment you buy it.It does not matter who plays it.
Now there may be some element of skill or knowledge inUNDERSTANDING if you have won (and yes, there are ways to work out what are the best scratch offs to buy). But you cannot loseby being bad at playing. And you cannot win more by beinggood at playing.
Hopefully that's clear :-)

That's not the best way. Play the game as it was meant to be played.
How Do You Play Scratch Offs
For 2 very good reasons.
[1] Would you normally hand a blank signed check over toa total stranger..? :-)
That ticket could be a jackpot winner. So blindly handingit over without having any idea what it's worth is not a goodidea.
Think this isn't a problem? Just have a read of some of thecomments on my blog post here. It is pretty shocking.
Of course, the vast majority of shop assistants are really nicehonest people. Who would just be happy for you that you won.But some are not. So why chance it?
Yes, you could (and should), put your name and sign the backof the ticket before handing it over... but...

How do you win scratch off tickets? Firstly - one of the 'secrets' is to play it as it was meant to be played!
If you actually play the game instead of just scanning it, you get some real entertainment value foryour money. That way, even losing tickets are never really losers :-)
Why not go even further. Take your time playing it. Scratchjust one symbol at a time. See how close you are getting toa win before you scratch the next one.
If you buy multiple tickets in one go, don't play them all atonce. Spread them out over a day.

What If I Don't Understand The Game?
This happens. Some games are quite complicated. There arelots of ways to win, different games within a ticket, or confusingwin conditions.
Bottom line - if you don't understand it, either get the assistantto explain it to you fully before you scratch it. Or avoid thatticket in future, and only buy the ones you do fully understand.
