How this return was calculated
We sum the value of all unclaimed prizes ($21,113,860) and divide by the estimated number of unsold tickets (6,203,547), assuming winning and losing tickets sell at the same rate. That gives an expected return of $3.40 per $5 ticket — $0.68 back per $1 played, or an expected loss of $1.60 per ticket.
Ticket counts come from the Texas Lottery published print run (~6,203,625 tickets).
