It is probability odds. What are the odds that you can guess a coin flip right? 50%. How about guessing it right multiple times in a row? Twice = 50% x 50% = 25% 3 times = 50% x 50% x 50% = 12.5% 4 times = 50% x 50% x 50% x 50% = 6.25% And so on. It isnt guaranteed, but those are the odds. Now if you wanted to find the odds of getting your coin flip correct just once on multiple guesses, you just subtract the above odds from 1: Guessing right once on 2 flips = 1 - .25 = 75% Guessing right once on 3 flips = 1 - .125 = 87.5% Guessing right once on 4 flips = 1 - .0625 = 93.75% The same works with the lottery, only with higher odds against you. if we assume the 99.75% chance of losing each time One draw = .9975 Two draws = .9975 x .9975 = .995 chance of losing Three draws = .9975 x .9975 x .9975 = .9925 chance of losing Four draws = .9975^4 = .9900 chance of losing And so on. So by the time you got to 300 drawings .9975^300 = .472 chance of losing Which means you have a 52.8% chance of winning within the first 300 drawings. Better than 50%. Again, not a guarantee.

TC didn't explain this in the magic scenario. If that's the case then there's really no reason to pick the Powerball option then. I figured that it was each ticket would be its own .25% chance. Makes the scenario interesting and worth talking about, especially since it's capped at 156 drawings per year (assuming it's only 1 ticket per draw to make it more interesting) then you only have a 32.32% chance to win a drawing of $100 million to $300 million (taxed) per year. People might just say screw that and stick with the guaranteed million. --- http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/players/5448 --- http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?playerId=2549 <cite>MichaeI_Vick posted [p:983195065] in $1 million...
