Isn't that still a worse deal for an entrant than a year ago though?
My understanding of the Golden Gamble was that half the fund went to the winning supporter. Typically £300 per game. 23 league games that's £6.9k out of the club.
Now, £100 goes to winning supporter with a 1 in 10 chance of the bonus ball being their final ticket number which will boost the prize to £1,000.
Best case for the supporter all 23 league games win £1,000 - £23k out of the club.
Worst case for the supporter all 23 league games win £100 - £2.3k out of the club.
On an expected value basis it appears that the supporter is worse off from the "game", especially the more tickets that may be sold since in the old game 50% of the fund went to the winning supporter.
I'll admit I've played neither the Golden Gamble last season or this new game, but it doesn't look to be for the benefit of the entrant. |
Non of that will be lost on RaymondJohn the new draw is designed to lessen the payout with the real winners being the club, not necessarily a bad thing however as it stands two big winners so early in the season equates to say 2400 paid out 2x 1000 and 4x 100 against last year 6 x 300 = 1800 paid out. | |

Not sure you're getting this are you?
Entrant buys a ticket with a 5 / 6 digit number on it.
All tickets are entered into the draw.
1 ticket is drawn out, if that is your ticket then you win £100.
A 2nd draw is then made, in which a bonus ball (0-9) is drawn out.
If the bonus ball matches the last number of the winning tickets number, the prize is £1000, if not, then it stays at £100.
Eg: ticket number 76198 is drawn, hurrah you win £100.
Bonus ball number 8 is then drawn out, hurrah that person hasn't won £100 anymore, they've won £1000! |
Ah right. Obvious now you've explained it! Cheers. |  | | |
