Alternative Strategy

Instead of buying one EXTREME GREEN ($5) ticket, consider buying 1x LOTERIA™ ($3) + 1x Green & Gold ($2). This combination delivers $3.56 in expected value compared to $3.43 for the single ticket — a 3.8% improvement. It also gives you a 44.7% chance of winning at least one prize versus 24.0% with the single ticket.
