Three ways to compare tickets

View all games →

Which tickets return the most prize money on average according to our current model?

Includes every prize, including the extremely rare top prize. Comparisons use payout relative to ticket price.

Ranks are published for this comparison. They cover the full published roster, so filters can leave gaps. Games without this estimate follow ranked games. Ranks do not establish ticket sales availability.

Math directly calculated from published lottery data.

PrizeGauge estimate · Modeled

An estimate that requires assumptions.

Expected Value
Average prize money per ticket if the same situation could be repeated many times. This is not a prediction for your next ticket.
ROI
How the estimated average payout compares with the ticket price. A negative percentage means an average payout below the price, before taxes.
EV Without the Top Prize
Big jackpots can make a ticket's average look much better even though winning one is extremely unlikely. This number shows its estimated value if the biggest prize pays $0.
Chance of Any Prize
This estimates the chance that a remaining ticket has any published prize. A winning ticket may only break even, so this is not your chance of making money.
Top Prizes Left
How many of the game's biggest prizes the lottery says are still unclaimed. This does not establish whether tickets are still for sale.
Estimated Tickets Left
Our estimate of how many tickets may remain. The lottery does not publish this exact number, and sold but unclaimed tickets can affect it.
Model Confidence
How confident we are in the estimate—not how likely the ticket is to win. Unknown means a confidence rating has not been published.
What does this mean?
All average payouts are pretax. Individual ticket outcomes are random; a stronger statistical comparison is not a promise of a win.
