    • this would be true if a winner was guaranteed in each draw, its not because its a lottery not a rafflespot13
    • It is guaranteed because every combination had been bought. Note the word "unique".404NotFound
    • you're wrong, what I've written doesn't mean what you said at all...albums
    • a loss is guaranteed in each draw even if you bet red or black its still 50/50 but you can lose, hence the small payout, high odds.albums
    • because of the high odds, as compared to choosing a # on the roulette wheel higher odds, higher payout.albums
    • you have to admit to yourself the chance of loss exists even if you bought 99% of the tickets, you increase odds, but dont guarantee until 100%albums
    • guarantee until 100%albums
    • it is a mathematical raffle if you buy every ticket, you guarantee all tickets have been bought and played by youalbums
