Learn edge secrets to the Monopoly board game.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Tired of losing at Monopoly? Looking for some tips that can increase your Monopoly IQ? Then just relax, while I show you some very interesting analysis that I researched. The information will better your game.

    Learn the most landed on spots in the game, Illinois, Jail, GO, and B&O Rail

  2. Step 2

    Know the dice percentage per roll.


    7 has the highest odds of occurring at about 17%

    6 & 8 are next at about 14%

    5 & 9 have a percentage of about 11

    Doubles have roughly a 1/6 chance of being rolled.

  3. Step 3

    Land on percentage, measured by a player's average "go round" the board.

    Orange Properties have the highest land on percent rate

    Red Properties have the second highest

    Yellow properties have the third highest

  4. Step 4

    R.O.I. in a Monopoly game

    Purple properties as a tandem yield the highest return on investment % compared to other color groups. This is considering the 4 houses plus hotel that would be bought in the course of filling up colored group lots that are owned.
