500X

**What's the deal** This $50 ticket is sitting comfortably in the middle of the pack right now. It's not a top-tier superstar, but it's far from a dud. It just feels pretty even-keeled across the board. The top prize is a nice $500,000, and five of those are still up for grabs, which is good. The way all the prize levels are distributed on this one — big, medium, and small wins — it's all just kind of... middle of the road. **Who should play this** This ticket is great for someone looking for a balanced bet. You’re not just chasing one huge dream, and you’re not just hoping for a bunch of tiny wins. It offers a little bit of everything in a pretty fair way. **Watch out for** Even with those five top prizes still out there, it’s still tough to hit a big one. It's a $50 ticket, so make sure you're okay with that price tag before you scratch. **The bottom line** This "500X" ticket is a solid, balanced choice if you’re looking for an all-around decent experience without leaning too heavily on any one type of win.
