Should You Play Lucky Fortune Right Now?

Lucky Fortune is a $5 scratch-off that has been on the market for 35 weeks. The ROI is -41.4%, so this one is best played for entertainment rather than value. Each ticket returns an expected $2.93 in prize value. All top prizes have been claimed — focus on lower tiers if you're still interested. Among the 19 active $5 games in Kentucky, Lucky Fortune ranks #18 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 Lucky Fortune ($5) ticket, consider buying 2x Jefferson ($2) + 1x $1 Break Fort Knox ($1). This combination delivers $4.53 in expected value compared to $2.93 for the single ticket — a 54.7% improvement. It also gives you a 50.7% chance of winning at least one prize versus 28.1% with the single ticket. Play responsibly — lottery games are for entertainment.
