Should You Play UNO™ Right Now?

UNO™ is a $5 scratch-off that has been on the market for 87 weeks. The ROI is -28.8%, so this one is best played for entertainment rather than value. Each ticket returns an expected $3.56 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 23.5% change since launch. Among the 31 active $5 games in Washington DC, UNO™ ranks #15 by expected value. If you're looking for the best value at this price point, also consider 20X the Cash ($5.05 EV) and DC LOVE ($3.81 EV).

Alternative Strategy

Instead of buying one UNO™ ($5) ticket, consider buying 1x One-Word Crossword ($3) + 1x MONOPOLY ($2). This combination delivers $3.89 in expected value compared to $3.56 for the single ticket — a 9.3% improvement. It also gives you a 40.9% chance of winning at least one prize versus 24.0% with the single ticket.
