Should You Play Winter Ice Right Now?

Winter Ice is a $10 scratch-off that has been on the market for 30 weeks. The ROI is -22.0%, so this one is best played for entertainment rather than value. Each ticket returns an expected $7.80 in prize value. Only 1 of the original 3 top prizes remains — act fast if you're chasing the big one.

Alternative Strategy

Instead of buying one Winter Ice ($10) ticket, consider buying 5x Jefferson ($2). This combination delivers $9.48 in expected value compared to $7.80 for the single ticket — a 21.5% improvement. It also gives you a 69.7% chance of winning at least one prize versus 29.4% with the single ticket.
