Why
↓Only 80 of 1,620 top prizes remain, and the mid-tier pool has thinned out with them.

  • Expected value lands near the pack at $0.71 per $1 spent.
  • Wins are infrequent: about a 24% chance to win something per ticket (1 in 4.20), lower than most games.

Over the last 4 weeks, about 0% of this game's prizes were reported claimed each week, well below the average for Georgia's $2 games (0.5% 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.
