Please note that the breakeven jackpot will vary according to each session.

I might add that if it were that high you shouldn't play at all, because it would induce too much competition. So, if you're going to play that session, wait for the jackpot to get to $5718 before you validate. However, according to my math, it still is a long ways from being a good value compared to the regular cards. I estimate the percentage of cards validated (not counting any I might buy) to push 100%. The Cash Ball today on that session is $3,024, which is the highest one at the Suncoast, and much higher than most days. Let's equalize the ratio of cost to potential win. The 12 is for the number of games eligible for the Cash Ball jackpot, and I divide by 75, because each game has a 1 in 75 chance of being won on the Cash Ball. The expected Cash Ball money is 12*j/75, where j is the jackpot size. Note that there are 11 games that pay $50 and 1 that pays $2500. Let's answer the question of at what Cash Ball jackpot should the player validate to maximize overall expected value. The player gets three unvalidated blue packs for $10. Let's just look at blue packs, due to the large triple coverall prize of $2,500, which does not depend on the color of the card. Let's look at the 9 PM session at the Suncoast, as an example. So, at what point does the Cash Ball get so large that you should validate? Let's rephrase the question to at what point does it become a better value than the bingo cards themselves. You must pay an additional validation fee to qualify for the jackpot should you win. A good web site for the jackpot amounts is.

If anybody that session calls bingo on exactly when that exact ball is called he will win a progressive jackpot. Every bingo session they will choose a ball at random as the Cash Ball, announce it, and put it back in the hopper. For the benefit of those who don't know what 'validate' means in bingo, allow me to explain.
