The mechanic

Jackpot pools contributions and selects one winner. The reference fixes a fictional 100-unit pot with one equally likely ticket per contributed unit and removes 3% of the whole pot before paying the winner. The winner’s gross return includes their own contribution. A larger contribution increases both win probability and exposed units; it does not improve this model’s expected return per contributed unit.

The decision to notice

Compare contribution, displayed win share, platform fee, item valuation, and maximum exposure before joining a pool.

03 / CHECK THE MODEL

Odds & mathematics

Probability describes frequency, gross return includes the original stake, and player net subtracts it. House edge is a long-run cost, not positive player expected value. None predicts a session.

  • Educational reference only, not operator odds or a claim about any independent lab. Operator limits, timing, availability and current fairness are not specified.
  • All payouts are gross (stake-inclusive). EV is player net per 1 unit staked; house edge = -EV. Decimals are rounded only for display.
  • Fictional 100-unit finalized pot, proportional tickets, 3% whole-pot fee. A larger contribution raises win probability and exposure, not RTP. Gross return includes the winner’s own contributed stake.
  • Popularity is unmeasured (legacy value 0). Difficulty is an editorial learning label; volatility describes the reference payout structure, not an independently measured operator rating.

Guide reference examples

These references are separate from the interactive model. A single row is not a complete distribution, particularly for pushes, multiple payouts, item values or fees. Missing expected net is not computed from an isolated row.

Guide examples, not current operator odds. Read the assumptions and payout basis for each row.
