Should You Play Cash! Right Now?

Cash! is a $10 scratch-off that has been on the market for 17 weeks. The ROI is -29.1%, so this one is best played for entertainment rather than value. Each ticket returns an expected $7.09 in prize value. There are 2295 of the original 4531 top prizes still available. Top prize odds are holding steady with a -0.8% change since launch. Among the 3 active $10 games in Louisiana, Cash! ranks #2 by expected value.

Alternative Strategy

Instead of buying one Cash! ($10) ticket, consider buying 2x Fleur De 3'S ($5). This combination delivers $7.37 in expected value compared to $7.09 for the single ticket — a 3.9% improvement. It also gives you a 42.0% chance of winning at least one prize versus 10.1% with the single ticket.
