What These Numbers Mean
- Price: The cost of a single ticket. This sets context for value metrics like expected return and single ticket value.
- Opening Odds: The published overall odds on a single ticket (one play). These odds don't update or move as prizes are claimed and are only the game's printed baseline.
- Overall Game Expected Value (RTP): A percent estimate of how much money the game returns to players on average. The current RTP changes over time since it is based on remaining prizes vs tickets remaining. It is best interpreted as the long term average across many plays and not what any one ticket will produce.
- Single Ticket Value: A dollar estimate of how much prize money is still in circulation, spread evenly across all of the remaining tickets. It’s essentially: (total remaining prize dollars) ÷ (tickets remaining). This dollar amount does not represent how much is expected to be won on each play.
- Win PA Lottery Purchase Weight: A custom metric that blends factors such as remaining top prizes, how quickly the game is being claimed, and where it sits in its current lifecycle. Other influencing factors include deviation of multiple top prize tiers vs the tier six baseline. Learn more about how purchase weight is calculated.

How to read the prizes remaining data table below: 'Prizes Remaining' shows how many prizes in each tier are still unclaimed compared to the original count. Bigger remaining counts often mean the game is earlier in its lifecycle while smaller counts can indicate it has been more heavily claimed. Both of these situations can be favorable if the total amount of top prizes remaining begin to deviate from tier six. Learn more about jackpot density by viewing the Jackpot Tracker
