A lottery ticket because it can provide momentarily some fun and excitement while the equivalent of a dollar can not.
Edit: *five dollars. I'd still pick the lottery ticket because why not.
But with the cash you've got options. You could still place a bet on something if you wanted if you wanted that moment of excitement. You've just now got the option to pick something that has better odds or something you think you have some knowledge about than a completely random lottery.
