How this return was calculated
We sum the value of all unclaimed prizes ($1,928,140) and divide by the estimated number of unsold tickets (1,556,198), assuming winning and losing tickets sell at the same rate. That gives an expected return of $1.24 per $2 ticket — $0.62 back per $1 played, or an expected loss of $0.76 per ticket.
Ticket counts come from the Washington's Lottery published print run (~5,470,100 tickets).
