It's still better than winning the Steam winter sale.
I actually won a game here after spending about 200 points on adding myself to games I'd like to own (basically two days worth of points).
Maybe I was lucky, maybe it was karma for gifting a game on this site (planning to offer more)... I don't know.

Lightfish! Assuming your asking what I got in the giveaways :)

2 months ago I won my first game here. Just this week, I won 2 more games. One of the 2 was a slightly less popular quickie tho..
I'm at 771 entries, so I guess I am slightly luckier than these statistics.

This website will have a notification stating you won, you will also get a email, and if the gifter is faster than you it will already be in your email as well. And, since the new updated Steam, if your gifter is faster than you, your gift will be sitting in the message box section, top right of steam client. The little envolope tab will be highlighted green.

/nerd on
You could win a gift only with one entry. Statistics don't say that when you have 0,29% chance to win something, you have to enter 345 times for it. You could win it on the first try, the second, the 355th, or even the 1000th. But when your entries are close to infinity, then you will win 0,29% of the times...

Or solve a puzzle one and it's a even better chance. OR, enter a group one, even better (or maybe worse) chance?

Watch me cripple all logical statistics with my bad luck. Follow me on my journey as I reach 1,000 entries without winning a single thing. Even the things hardly anyone else wanted.

Currently. Hence the "follow me on my journey". I am predicting that by the time I reach 1,000 entries, I will still have no wins.

I don't think the odds can be so universal. Some games have many more entries than others on average.
