That for sure but beware that the tickets could expire before that will happen.

Good point,
My oldest ticket expires on the 10th, and 100,000 isn't expected until the 12th
Twice while I was playing today, someone got a shot at the jackpot.
The second time, he actually won it.
So back to square 1

Again??? Come ooooon! What was the jackpot? 70.000 or so?
53332 only -- the lowest since I've been keeping track
That was after only 9 days.
That drops the average winning interval to only 14 days -- the last 3 have averaged 7, and the average of the last 3 jackpots has been only 75000
Since i have a whack o' tickets, I'll start playing when the first ticket is about to expire (the 10th)
Cheers,

It would be already nice to play for the jackpot, but I’m sure that will happen always someone else and then you see you win the whole thing.
As always, the odds are against any one person wining, but someone eventually will.
Looking at the chart, I wondered if it would be +EV to play with 70 StarsCoin, but risk/reward doesn't even out until 2 pair level, which -- at least for me -- is fairly rare.
The jackpot is already more then 200k. That’s a long time ago when the jackpot was this high.
yes -- at this point, my cost for this run is exactly 0.
I hit trips twice, which gives you 25 StarCoin back, and I had all those Deal tickets.
Today, the two cards I picked were both K, and there was a third among the 5 cards left.
<sigh>

Not bad and with a jackpot of 220k+ it could end up with a nice extra bonus as well.
The last 2 times I played the Deal, I threw away a flush.
In the first case, had I chosen 2 different cards, I would have had a straight, this morning, I could have had a pair.
Hopefully, it will all be over soon.
Best of luck,

How cute. Still having the believe that choosing cards actually has an influence on the predetermined outcome.

lol -- The RNG hates me! 
That wasn't my theory. I insinuate that they create near misses which apparently are more important for addicts than wins. So my claim is, that no matter which two cards you would have taken the result was predetermined and the animations are just a decoration and a shill.
Plausible.
It has long been known that the most powerful motivator is random reinforcement.
I had a nice result in the deal:
