Hi, I’ve found some answers while searching the internet to this question, but they’ve been too mathematical or not exactly related to this specific question.

I have the opportunity to buy tickets in 2 different raffles for a car I’d love to have. The tickets are expensive, so I want to only buy 2 tickets.

The raffles each will only sell a maximum of 1,000 tickets. Both still have tickets for sale, but I don’t know how many they have sold – just less than 1,000.

Because of the time frame, both raffles will probably not meet their goal of 1,000 tickets sold – so each raffle will likely have different amounts of tickets sold. Example: 1 raffle sold 893 tickets, the other 980 tickets – so different odds.

Would I have a better chance of winning one of these raffles if I either 1) bought 1 ticket to each; or 2) bought 2 tickets for one.

I only want to buy 2 tickets total.

Thanks to you math heads out there – please make it simple – at least your conclusion.
