Alternative Strategy

Instead of buying one Royal Riches ($30) ticket, consider buying 1x $1,000,000 Cash Is King ($20) + 1x $500,000 Bankroll ($10). This combination delivers $26.22 in expected value compared to $25.41 for the single ticket — a 3.2% improvement. It also gives you a 48.8% chance of winning at least one prize versus 25.3% with the single ticket.
