Expected return
Counting only prizes you have a realistic chance of hitting, this game returns about $13.38 per $20 ticket — 67% of what you pay. Like every scratch game, that is a loss on average.
A further $16,512,000 sits in 257 remaining prizes so rare that your chance of reaching one is about 1 in 46,079 per ticket — 9% of everything left in this game.
Based on roughly 11,842,337 tickets estimated to remain unsold. Scratch outcomes are fixed at printing; nothing here predicts an individual ticket.
