Should I Buy This Ticket?

Expected value per $1 spent:
$0.66
POOR VALUE
Ranked 62nd out of 66 New Jersey scratch-offs. Better options exist, including 6 other $2 New Jersey games ranked higher.
Why
$0.66 returned per dollar is roughly what most scratch-offs pay right now.
  • Wins are infrequent: about a 22% chance to win something per ticket (1 in 4.57), lower than most games.
  • Weak prize quality: relatively few of the bigger top and mid-tier prizes are still unclaimed.
