Should You Play Blue Line Bingo Right Now?

Blue Line Bingo is a $5 scratch-off that has been on the market for 26 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. Only 1 of the original 3 top prizes remains — act fast if you're chasing the big one. Top prize odds are holding steady with a 34.7% change since launch. Among the 14 active $5 games in New Jersey, Blue Line Bingo ranks #10 by expected value. If you're looking for the best value at this price point, also consider Cash Lines ($3.41 EV) and 20X ($3.29 EV).

Alternative Strategy

Instead of buying one Blue Line Bingo ($5) ticket, consider buying 2x Big Money Spectacular ($2) + 1x Loose Change ($1). This combination delivers $2.93 in expected value compared to $2.93 for the single ticket — a 0.0% improvement. It also gives you a 51.7% chance of winning at least one prize versus 23.3% with the single ticket.
