What are the odds of a big pull?
How odds are published
Most major apps show the odds for each value tier in a pack and the minimum and maximum card value before you buy. Fanatics Instant Rips is a notable exception, according to independent reviews.
A worked example (hypothetical numbers)
| Tier | Card value | Odds |
|---|---|---|
| Base | about $8 | 92% |
| Mid | about $50 | 7% |
| Hit | about $400 | 0.9% |
| Grail | about $10,000 | 0.1% |
Expected value = 0.92×8 + 0.07×50 + 0.009×400 + 0.001×10,000 = $24.46. If that pack costs $30, you get back about 82% on average, and 92% of the time you get roughly $8.
The takeaway
Big pulls happen, but they're what the odds say they are: rare. Rip for fun, with money you've set aside for it.
