Minnesota prints its overall odds as 1 in 2.76.
No payout figure, on purpose. Minnesota publishes only the prizes of $500 and up for each game, with how many were printed and how many are left. A payout, an expected value or the odds today each need every prize level and how many were printed, so for Minnesota we show exactly what its lottery publishes and compute nothing from it. A figure built from part of a table would be wrong, not rough: it is how one state's partial table produced games that appeared to pay back more than they cost. How we treat partial prize tables.
Prizes remaining, as Minnesota publishes them
