The Oregon Lottery launched three Scratch-off tickets on sale on Tuesday, September 8, priced at $1, $2, and $20 respectively. According to the lottery's game listings they are Cash Money, Slow Much Money, and Opossum Pocket Change, game numbers 1683, 1688, and 1689.
The $20 game is the one that stands out. Cash Money enters at 92.1 on our ValueScore™ scale, ahead of all 54 games on sale in Oregon and 28th of the roughly 2,840 games we score nationally.
| Game | Price | Top prize | Top prizes | Payout | Odds | ValueScore™ | OR rank |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cash Money | $20 | $100,000 | 2 | 73.5% | 1 in 3.57 | 92.1 | 1st |
| Slow Much Money | $2 | $8,000 | 2 | 63.4% | 1 in 4.57 | 50.0 | 22nd |
| Opossum Pocket Change | $1 | $1,000 | 9 | 61.5% | 1 in 4.83 | 42.6 | 33rd |
Cash Money takes first on odds and an untouched prize pool
Cash Money pays back 73.5% of sales, above Oregon's $20 average of 72.0% and below the national $20 figure of 75.1%. What lifts it is the win rate, with odds of one in 3.57. It launched with two $100,000 top prizes at odds of 1 in 200,000 and 17 prizes of $1,000 at 1 in 24,390. The top prize is small for a $20 ticket, and the odds of hitting it are short for the same reason. The median $20 game in the country pays its top prize once per 800,000 tickets, so Cash Money's top prize is four times easier to reach and a fraction of the size.
It takes the top spot from the $10 Fast Cash Poker at 78.6, one of three games launched in July, and the $30 All the Wishes at 77.4. The gap between first and second, 13.5 points, is unusually wide for a state table and mostly reflects that Cash Money has sold nothing while the others are 10% to 36% through their runs.
The cheap tickets are what Oregon’s cheap tickets usually are
Oregon's $1 games pay an average of 61.7% and its $2 games 63.3%, both a little under the national figures of 61.8% and 65.5%. The two new games land on those averages. Opossum Pocket Change pays 61.5% with nine $1,000 top prizes. Slow Much Money pays 63.4% with two $8,000 top prizes. Both carry top-prize odds of 1 in 333,333, which for a $1 or $2 ticket is in the normal range.
Oregon's 54 active games average 67.4% payout and 45.5 on our scale, so Cash Money is the only one of the three above the state average. The lottery launched three games in August as well, one of them the current number two. Current Oregon rankings update daily.
