top prize still in play

Reading the columns

Left: Estimated fraction of tickets remaining — pooled unclaimed-rate of the abundant low-value prize tiers.
Payout: Expected payback per dollar if you bought a random remaining ticket today (proxy).
EV: Expected value of one remaining ticket in dollars: total remaining prize money ÷ estimated tickets remaining.
ROI: Expected return per ticket: EV ÷ price − 1. Always negative — the house keeps the difference.
EV lift: Today’s expected value versus the game at launch. 1.00× = unchanged.
Enrich: Top-prize enrichment: how over- or under-represented the top prize is among remaining tickets. 1.0 = ordinary depletion, 2.0 = twice as common as at launch, 0 = gone.
Top odds: Estimated current odds of a random remaining ticket hitting the top prize.
Conf: Low when the anchor prize tiers disagree about how much of the game remains, or too few tiers anchor the estimate.

Counts come from each state lottery’s published unclaimed-prize tables and lag actual sales by the claim delay. Every game has negative expected value; this is a data project, not a money printer.
