Jeweled 7’s (California)

Official website for Game

Single Ticket:
Cost: $2
Chances of at least breaking even:
14.3% (~7 to 1)


Note: While technically the the free ticket is a breakeven prize as they are both worth the same amount, they are not equal as you can not exchange the free ticket for a cash amount and walk away break-even. You are forced to continue playing the free ticket (and possibly again and again...) until you either lose or win a prize. More likely than not you will lose. This drops your chances of at least breaking even from the stated amount on the website to the odds calculated above.


Optimal Chances:
Buying 2 ticket(s)
Cost: $4
Chances of at least breaking even:
15.1% (~6.6 to 1)


Median Prizes
(half the time prizes will be less than this amount, half the time it will be more)
10 tickets ($20): $4
100 tickets ($200): $83
1,000 tickets ($2,000): $945
