Should You Play Millionaire Maker Right Now?

Millionaire Maker is a $50 scratch-off. The ROI is -19.4%, so this one is best played for entertainment rather than value. Each ticket returns an expected $40.30 in prize value. Only 1 of the original 2 top prizes remains — act fast if you're chasing the big one. Top prize odds are holding steady with a -25.3% change since launch. Among the 5 active $50 games in Michigan, Millionaire Maker ranks #5 by expected value. If you're looking for the best value at this price point, also consider 500X Money Maker ($60.89 EV) and $300,000,000 Extraordinaire ($43.08 EV).

Alternative Strategy

Instead of buying one Millionaire Maker ($50) ticket, consider buying 2x 100X ($20) + 1x 25 Days of Winning ($10). This combination delivers $53.43 in expected value compared to $40.30 for the single ticket — a 32.6% improvement. It also gives you a 61.8% chance of winning at least one prize versus 31.3% with the single ticket.
