BELOW AVERAGE
The numbers work against it: #41 of the 47 active games we track in Oregon.
Why
↓Prize quality is thin, with the bigger winners mostly gone.
  • Top-prize odds have improved: 1 in 326K at launch, about 1 in 125K now. Tickets have sold faster than the $10,000 prizes have been claimed.
  • At $0.63 returned per $1, this game pays back less than most scratch-offs.
  • Late in this game's life: the remaining prize pool is small.

How fast it's selling

Over the last 4 weeks, about 0.2% of this game's prizes were reported claimed each week, well below the average for Oregon's $2 games (1.3% 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.
