    Was it a YouTube race or something? Were there others that paid $100 and didn’t get anything?
    Congrats on the cool coin for cheap!

    Yes, YouTube races.
    $6 a spot for a 10 spots per race.
    Winner of the 10 spot race, gets the option of winning instantly a 1 oz. Coin or bar or bullion.
    Or to give up the option to win the 1 oz. Then be placed in another separate 10 spot race, exclusively for the GOLD COIN!
    It took me several tries to even win, to make that choice!
    Once I won, than I sacrificed my option to win a 1 ouncer, so I can enter in the Gold Coin race.
    I had only 1 try out of the 10 names to WIN.
    When I did win the Gold race.
    He gave me another option to choose a Gold Coin, like the 1909 raw one I won recently. or for a $50 Upgrade, to pick the better Gold Coin. The Slab!
    The NGC ms 61 1913 2.50 Gold Indian.
    Totaling my cost to
    $120!

    I thought that gambling was more closely regulated and didn't realize that it existed on YouTube in this form. Interesting. Sucked in by clickbait but learned something anyway.

    Depending upon how many times he’s played, he might not really be ahead.

    He called the thread "Lightning Strikes Twice" leading me to believe he entered 2 times and won both of them. Of course, I could be wrong.

    From the other thread in which he posted a win:
    “If you're asking if I lose?
    Yes, many times.”

    The only consistent winner is the person running the races and that’s assuming the police don’t come knocking on the door.

    We’ll if the total price is higher than the cost of buying the coins outright, the problem of not having any gold could easily take care of itself.

    Just an indication that the numerator is 2. No mention of the size of the denominator.
