Should You Play Power Shot Right Now?

Power Shot is a $5 scratch-off that has been on the market for 216 weeks. The ROI is -30.9%, so this one is best played for entertainment rather than value. Each ticket returns an expected $3.45 in prize value. Only 1 of the original 4 top prizes remains — act fast if you're chasing the big one. Top prize odds are holding steady with a -36.2% change since launch. Among the 19 active $5 games in Kentucky, Power Shot ranks #5 by expected value. If you're looking for the best value at this price point, also consider Wild 7's ($3.49 EV) and Money Train ($3.48 EV).

Alternative Strategy

Instead of buying one Power Shot ($5) ticket, consider buying 2x Jefferson ($2) + 1x $1 Break Fort Knox ($1). This combination delivers $4.53 in expected value compared to $3.45 for the single ticket — a 31.2% improvement. It also gives you a 50.7% chance of winning at least one prize versus 27.9% with the single ticket. Play responsibly — lottery games are for entertainment.
