The number that moves

Launch odds vs. real odds on FESTIVE $500s

The odds printed on FESTIVE $500s were set the day it went to print and they never move. The real odds do, every single day, as prizes get claimed and tickets sell. When the $500 prizes get scooped up faster than the tickets sell, the real odds on that top prize get worse than what’s on the front. When tickets sell faster than the big prizes go, they get better. With 198 of 11,633 top prizes still out there, whether FESTIVE $500s is worth your money comes down to the odds today — and for this game that number is right above, free.
