How this return was calculated
We sum the value of all unclaimed prizes ($155,666) and divide by the estimated number of unsold tickets (144,309), assuming winning and losing tickets sell at the same rate. That gives an expected return of $1.08 per $2 ticket — $0.54 back per $1 played, or an expected loss of $0.92 per ticket.
Ticket counts come from the CT Lottery published print run (~1,243,900 tickets).
