    And, really, the winner will almost certainly be determined by who owns the middle-priced properties. I’m too lazy to look them up, but it’s the ones that are essentially opposite the Go space on the board. It’s a fascinating commentary.

      It’s the red ones, they’re about 14 spaces away from jail, which is the most common space to end up on. In the long run people will land on them most often.

        There’s one really popular red spot, but the three orange ones are also frequently hit, according to this analysis.

        Basically, to survive, you need to make sure no one gets a monopoly of the orange or red ones. Which really brings us back to the point of the original game…lol

      Boardwalk and Park Place, and yes it eventually comes down to whoever lands on one of those first that doesn’t own it. They probably lose first.
