If you discount Many Worlds then you should expect Case 1 because those
trillion copies will ONLY be made if a one in a million event happens. On
the other hand in Many Worlds if there are a million worlds where I lost and
a trillion worlds where I won that that's the way things are regardless and
I can expect to win.

Not in Many Worlds because there are also a trillion jackpots.
