FOTL is the perfect product for a 1 box break. $32 a spot. 32 spots. 31 losers. At the most, 1 winner. 1 winner that on average will make 3-4 times their break spot. The worst form of gambling on earth. There is no close second.

Roulette?

And I'd argue your return rate for the hit is often LOW

Roulette? Maybe Russian Roulette. I worked at a casino for over a decade. The worst odds casino game is better than virtually every single football and basketball break you could buy into over the last couple years.

Comparing breaking Panini One FOTL to roulette would be like betting a number and instead of getting paid 35-1 you get paid 4-1 if you win.

I had a breaker tell me awhile back he estimated 1% of the people that bought into his breaks were ahead. 1%! He was serious. You think 1% or even only 10% of the people that go to a casino win money? If the odds for casino games were like the odds for sports card breaks, casinos wouldn't exist.

Was rolling with 32 odds excluding the greens. But you are right. They are demonstrably worse.

I like to hug the 22 with borders and corners. And always roll a bit on the side action to mitigate. Point is Roulette is brutal and to your credit this is worse. Doesn't deny the product was made for a specific group.
