How this return was calculated
We sum the value of all unclaimed prizes ($3,757,700) and divide by the estimated number of unsold tickets (248,173), assuming winning and losing tickets sell at the same rate. That gives an expected return of $15.14 per $20 ticket — $0.76 back per $1 played, or an expected loss of $4.86 per ticket.
Ticket counts come from the CT Lottery published print run (~1,575,000 tickets).
