Rainbow Riches is one of the most enjoyable games around, and indeed has been rated the most popular game of its type in the UK consistently over the last few years. But is it possible to improve your chances of success? Well, not in the normal run of things, as every game is random. But here's a thought.There is nothing you can do about the Pots of Gold or Pathway to Riches features, as the result is clearly predetermined. But what about the Wishing Wells feature, where you have to select on one three values? Is there anything that can be done?The Wishing Well feature has three choices: and behind each well are three distinct values; the highest, medium and lowest values, each of which translates into an award. The objective, of course, is to try and get the highest award.Now, if you were to eliminate the value you think is the lowest award, then you are left with two Wells to choose from. You have improved your odds of getting the top value from 3-1 to 2-1 if you believe you have eliminated the value you believe was the least. On 2 out of 3 occasions, you will now pick the highest value (because on 1 out of 3 times you will have erroneously eliminated the highest value).It seems odd that you can improve your odds like this but mathematics says you can, and you can see an example of the Wishing Well conundrum here at www.rainbowriches.org.uk and selecting the Wishing Well feature button.
