The Hobbit Play Booster expected value
The average is the sum of every card's price times its chance of showing up, so it counts the long-shot hits too. The ten most valuable cards make up 23% of it, so the value is spread across the pack rather than resting on one big hit. Expect about 1.14 rares and 0.16 mythic rares per pack.
| Pack worth at least | Chance |
|---|---|
| $10 | 5.1% |
| $25 | 1.6% |
| $50 | 0.1% |
