Alternative Strategy

Instead of buying one Max $ ($30) ticket, consider buying 1x 100X ($20) + 1x Lady Luck 777 ($10). This combination delivers $27.10 in expected value compared to $24.55 for the single ticket — a 10.4% improvement. It also gives you a 47.0% chance of winning at least one prize versus 31.8% with the single ticket.
