  • At 1 in 4.36, winning tickets turn up less often than usual.
  • Low inventory: most of this game's prizes have already been claimed.

How fast it's selling

Over the last 4 weeks, about 0.2% of this game's prizes were reported claimed each week, slower than the average for Florida's $2 games (0.3% a week).

From ScratchCheck's daily record of the lottery's published prize counts. Dates are when a claim first appeared in those counts, and small prizes are often cashed days after purchase, so claims trail actual sales.
