Expected return

Counting only prizes you have a realistic chance of hitting, this game returns about $1.18 per $2 ticket — 59% of what you pay. Like every scratch game, that is a loss on average.

A further $106,000 sits in 7 remaining prizes so rare that your chance of reaching one is about 1 in 350,300 per ticket — 4% of everything left in this game.

Based on roughly 2,452,099 tickets estimated to remain unsold. Scratch outcomes are fixed at printing; nothing here predicts an individual ticket.
