How this return was calculated
We sum the value of all unclaimed prizes ($1,430,745) and divide by the estimated number of unsold tickets (434,459), assuming winning and losing tickets sell at the same rate. That gives an expected return of $3.29 per $5 ticket — $0.66 back per $1 played, or an expected loss of $1.71 per ticket.
Ticket counts come from the CT Lottery published print run (~1,024,400 tickets).
