40+ boxes wasn't enough - here comes ANOTHER 20-box CASE BREAK

[BrownBullhead]

Yes, I'm weak. But this is THE LAST CASE BREAK. Case #064/600 stays sealed! My son is home sick today, and I am working from home on a few projects, but there's only so much I can do remotely. so, after lunch for the boy, it was time to crackin' some waxin'!

==================================================
BOX 01 OF 20, CASE #068/600

Ilya is a patch colour variant for me, so it's p.c. Aulin is a double. No mini, this sucks.

memorabilia-type = KOVALCHUK HOPEFULS
###/300 rc = AULIN, JARED
mini rc = N/A

==================================================
BOX 02 OF 20, CASE #068/600

Wow! I've NEVER seen this Nash in "RED". Some p.c. goodness right there! The rookies are doubles, but now that we have about 35 doubles in the ###/300 and about 25 in the mini's, I'm thinking of starting a set for my son!

memorabilia-type = NASH HOPEFULS
###/300 rc = BYKOV, DMITRI
mini rc = FROLOV, ALEXANDER

==================================================
BOX 03 OF 20, CASE #068/600

This Sergei is haunting me. This is the third copy I've pulled in my last 45 boxes cracked! Like above, The rookies are doubles, but now that we have about 35 doubles in the ###/300 and about 25 in the mini's, I'm thinking of starting a set for my son!

memorabilia-type = FEDOROV JERSEYS
###/300 rc = TELLQVIST, MIKAEL
mini rc = WALKER, MATT

==================================================
BOX 04 OF 20, CASE #068/600

Kapanen is a true double so it will land on eBay. This Spezza though! Spezza in the 21 loose boxes break. Spezza in the Case 123/600 break. Spezza in the Case 068/600 break. Sabourin is a duplicate.

memorabilia-type = KAPANEN, NIKO
###/300 rc = SPEZZA, JASON
mini rc = SABOURIN, DANY

==================================================
BOX 05 OF 20, CASE #068/600

Miller is a p.c. need. Goes nicely with my 2 colour one aand my "Vault" grey one. Need the Komisarek for mini set. But again a "missing" RC. Disappointing.

memorabilia-type = MILLER HOPEFULS
###/300 rc = missed opening a few packs after getting the miller and KOBASEW was in here afterall!
mini rc = KOMISAREK, MIKE

==================================================

 

[SNobles]

Looking forward to seeing the next boxes. I bet there is a real nice gem in there for you.

 

[creasecollector]

Nice stuff so far,and it's great to see some more cards end up in your PC with the colour variations and all that. Best of luck the rest of the way !

[BrownBullhead]

Yes, I blew threw the entire 20-BOX case in 6 hours! I got impatient with this case.

I have to say, this case was unusually heavy with "Stick & Jersey" subset.

Anyway, no more breaking for foreseeable future. Now, I need you guys to go buy some of my doubles from eBay! http://www.ebay.ca/usr/brownbullhead

Another Lemieux auto. Fantastic!

 

[nhlderek]

Woo another Lemieux auto!!! That’s fantastic!

 

[BrownBullhead]

Woo another Lemieux auto!!! That’s fantastic!

I did some quick math.

He has 25 possible cards that could be "auto'd".

15 Back in Time's and 10 Magnficents.

BIT are 15 different x 10 print run = 150
MI are 10 different, 5 x 15 print run and 5 x 5 print run = 100

So 250 physical Lemieux autos.

600 cases made. 20 boxes per case = 12,000 boxes made.

Should be 1 auto in 1.4 cases (600 / 250), or 1 auto in 28 (1.4 x 20) boxes.

I just cracked 61 boxes and pulled 5 auto's.

I think I beat the odds just a bit. ;-) The hobby was smiling on me so far in October.

I appreciate seeing this. Puts it into perspective. Thanks for sharing! You got some nice cards in the case, just probably not as many new ones as you would have liked. I wouldn't mind taking a crack at the PM Bouchard rookie. And you learn something new every day..never have I ever heard of Frederic Cloutier. And neat the Spezza is 300/300!

 

[crowncarrier]

And BOOM goes the Dynamite

Nice hit......AGAIN!!!!!!

Now I like seeing the math. Thanks for doing that. You definitely beat the odds for sure. Can’t think of a better person to pull em. Congrats
