The number that moves

Launch odds vs. real odds on $1,000,000 Crossword 50X

The odds printed on $1,000,000 Crossword 50X 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 1000000 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 4 of 5 top prizes still out there, whether $1,000,000 Crossword 50X is worth your money comes down to the odds today, and that’s the number members see.
