For entertainment only — not financial or gambling advice. This is a random simulation using each game's published odds and prize tiers; results vary every run, and real play also involves taxes and occasional jackpot-sharing. The lottery is a negative-expected-value bet — only play with money you can afford to lose.
Each ticket is drawn against the game's real odds: a 1-in-jackpot-odds chance of the top prize (paid at a randomly sampled historical cash value), then the published fixed odds for each lower tier. We don't model taxes or jackpot splitting — both of which would only make a real-world result worse. Estimates and a random simulation for general information only; not financial or gambling advice.
