Should You Play Cherry Jackpot Right Now?

Cherry Jackpot is a $2 scratch-off. The ROI is -39.5%, so this one is best played for entertainment rather than value. Each ticket returns an expected $1.21 in prize value. There are 2 of the original 5 top prizes still available. Top prize odds are holding steady with a 44.7% change since launch. Among the 27 active $2 games in Michigan, Cherry Jackpot ranks #25 by expected value. If you're looking for the best value at this price point, also consider Blowout Bonanza ($1.47 EV) and Disco Dollars ($1.45 EV).

Alternative Strategy

Instead of buying one Cherry Jackpot ($2) ticket, consider buying 2x Let Freedom Ring ($1). This combination delivers $1.42 in expected value compared to $1.21 for the single ticket — a 17.1% improvement. It also gives you a 37.7% chance of winning at least one prize versus 21.6% with the single ticket.
