It will be interesting to see if we get lucky and hit anything, some of these groups are quite lucky and have had success.

Hahahhaa, that's a nice way to test your luck! It might be a good shot, I personally consider myself as very lucky sometimes, who knows if luck can help me out this time.

I kind of like the idea that is presented there!

What are the odds of hitting a block roughly with say the 0.05 option? (your hash / total hash)

It is probably more viable than setting up a small miner at home for this purpose to try and get lucky.

If we have 10 people (0.5BTC) Its roughly 2%. To have a theoretical 100% chance you would need to spend 25BTC on mining. It does not matter if you do 1PH for a couple of days, or 100TH for a couple of weeks assuming you spend the same 25BTC you have the same luck.

It would be amazing to hit a block though the return in a 10 person group. It is 50x your investment though Cheesy

50x your investment shared with 10 people..

Which means that you you have 2% chance to gain 500% on your investment. Those odds do not seem very favourable to me unfortunately..

Those calculations are after you account for 10 people. And you have a massively better chance than winning the lottery, or the top 3 prizes after jackpot at least.
0.05 x 50 = 2.5BTC (your approximate share of a block)

It accumulates to 2% chance to gain 5,000% on investment.
