How this return was calculated
We sum the value of all unclaimed prizes ($11,420,410) and divide by the estimated number of unsold tickets (1,645,393), assuming winning and losing tickets sell at the same rate. That gives an expected return of $6.94 per $10 ticket — $0.69 back per $1 played, or an expected loss of $3.06 per ticket.
Ticket counts come from the CT Lottery published print run (~2,056,050 tickets).
