If a scratch game publishes remaining prizes and price, you can sketch EV. The operator notice is the real table. Advertised top prizes are rare cells. Weekly 6/45 EV is lottery-expected-value; this is instant tickets only. Hot-pack and lucky-shop lore is inventory bias. Scratch order does not change a fair random field.
Some games publish remaining top prizes. Without a publish, you are guessing. Not a buy signal.
A weekly draw and a printed pool are different products.
Repeated draw games are keno-vs-lotto-odds.
Small entertainment. No debt for a streak. Addiction is counselling.

Arithmetic, not a winning tip.
For entertainment and arithmetic. Combinatorics, bias, and expected value are not a winning tip or investment advice. Draws are random.
