YES - It's almost liking gambling on a ticket. I have purchased 10+ Playoff tickets and you run the risk of no game you are out. Yet My upside is I have locked in tickets at 25-75 for first round to finals. It's almost like a stock market - I can resell these tickets as playoffs loom. By getting in early I can score - If Celtics make finals I make $10,000. They get bounced early I'm screwed.
