How this return was calculated
We sum the value of all unclaimed prizes ($812,531) and divide by the estimated number of unsold tickets (678,626), assuming winning and losing tickets sell at the same rate. That gives an expected return of $1.20 per $2 ticket — $0.60 back per $1 played, or an expected loss of $0.80 per ticket.
Ticket counts come from the New Jersey Lottery published print run (~3,507,300 tickets).
