Scratch and win and the car races and the dog races
I have been playing these three everyday and always lose on the races and only win the $350 or $750 on the scratches. How on earth does anyone get anything else?

You are guaranteed to win at least 100 on the scratch off game. The dog races and car races appear to be random, and pay out at fair odds.
Agreed. As far as I’m concerned the decision to play or not play these mini-games is a no-brainer. You’re guaranteed to come out ahead on virtually every Scratch-R transaction. I’ve heard other users complain that they ”never” win either at Springfield Downs or at the Go-Kart track. That certainly hasn’t been my experience. As an example, the stated probability of winning for the 2-1 contestant at Springfield Downs is 50.51%. That sounds right based on my gameplay. Given that the cost of a bet is $2K and the payout is $6K, the expected value of the wager is more than $2K. Why would you not place such a bet? (As I recall, the expected value for the 2-1 contestant is highest, but even for the 99-1 dog it’s around $1K.)
Plus I don’t like those floating icons. I might be tempted to play even if I knew that in the long run I’d lose money.
