Should You Play KING CROSSWORD Right Now?

KING CROSSWORD is a $3 scratch-off. The ROI is -44.7%, so this one is best played for entertainment rather than value. Each ticket returns an expected $1.66 in prize value. All top prizes have been claimed — focus on lower tiers if you're still interested. Among the 9 active $3 games in Washington, KING CROSSWORD ranks #9 by expected value.

Alternative Strategy

Instead of buying one KING CROSSWORD ($3) ticket, consider buying 1x CELEBRATE ($2) + 1x WINNER WINNER CHICKEN DINNER ($1). This combination delivers $1.91 in expected value compared to $1.66 for the single ticket — a 15.0% improvement. It also gives you a 43.7% chance of winning at least one prize versus 25.6% with the single ticket. Play responsibly — lottery games are for entertainment.
