How this return was calculated
We sum the value of all unclaimed prizes ($7,192,305) and divide by the estimated number of unsold tickets (980,642), assuming winning and losing tickets sell at the same rate. That gives an expected return of $7.33 per $10 ticket — $0.73 back per $1 played, or an expected loss of $2.67 per ticket.
Ticket counts come from the Washington's Lottery published print run (~1,047,650 tickets).
