Yeah, it was a little surprising it wasn't hit. The takeout-adjusted parlay was $58.6K, so 2 or 3 winning tickets were expected.

Had there been only one winning ticket, that lucky winner would've gotten paid 3.5x the parlay. Interestingly, both the Pk3 and the Pk4 came in pretty much in line with the takeout-adjusted parlays.

For those looking at the Pk5 value proposition today, a pool size any less than $1.25M (including the $162K carryover) means there's actually a positive expectation on the bet. Anything more than $1.25M, the effective take will be somewhere between 0 and 15%.
