If The Odds Of Winning Are 1 And 18 And You Purchase 3 Tickets, Does That Change The Odds?

Only a set amount of tickets will be sold, so if I bought 3 tickets, would that make my odds 1 out of 6?

    The chances are very low of wining the match. The ticket price will not raise until the ratio rise!
    Even if you have 3 tickets or 10 the odd of winning is 1% so the price of the ticket won't rise!

      Technically yes. Because if you bought 3 tickets 6 times 1 of them would be a winner. So your implied odds are 1 in 6.
