ABOUT

Mini Cactpot is a scratchcard lottery where each of the numbers 11 through 99
are hidden in a 3×33×3 grid. One cell is initially revealed, and after selecting
3 more to uncover one at a time, you may select any row, column, or diagonal.
The sum of your selected line determines how much MGP you win.

This calculator works by computing the expected value of selecting any line or
cell. A strategy that doesn’t involve heavy computation is to first reveal a “Y”
shape on the board.









Create any of these shapes. At least one of these is always possible.

Next, select a line as follows:

 1. If a line can be the 1-2-31-2-3 line, select it.
 2. If a line can be the 7-8-97-8-9 line, select it.
 3. Select whatever line can have the biggest sum (not payout).

This strategy gives an expected value of 1,259, whereas perfect play gives
1,484. Note that in steps 1 and 2, if a 1-2-31-2-3 or 7-8-97-8-9 line exists,
you will always select it without ambiguity. In step 3, you may have to guess
which lines may have a large sum.

A very similar strategy is to make a Tetris “T” shape, but this performs
slightly worse on average.
