How this return was calculated
We sum the value of all unclaimed prizes ($1,056,820) and divide by the estimated number of unsold tickets (903,081), assuming winning and losing tickets sell at the same rate. That gives an expected return of $1.17 per $2 ticket — $0.59 back per $1 played, or an expected loss of $0.83 per ticket.
Ticket counts come from the Washington's Lottery published print run (~5,470,100 tickets).
