What Connecticut charges, and what you get for it

Higher-priced tickets almost always carry better overall odds and a higher payout rate, because the prize pool scales faster than the ticket price. This table is the state's own catalog, grouped by price.

How fast Connecticut top prizes get claimed

We snapshot every game's remaining prize counts daily, so we can show depletion rather than just the current number. This counts the drop in top prizes remaining each month across 42 tracked games whose top prize is $10,000 or more, 176 claimed in total over the window. No other site publishes this.

Top prizes claimed per month. A game that launched mid-window only contributes claims recorded after its first snapshot, so its opening month reads low.

Common questions

How many scratch-off games does Connecticut have?

Connecticut currently has 48 active scratch-off games across 8 price points, from $1 to $50. 13 launched in the last 90 days.

What are the average odds on a Connecticut scratch-off?

Across all 48 active games the average published overall odds are 1 in 3.97. The single best game right now is 1 in 2.72. Overall odds count every prize tier, including prizes equal to the ticket price.

How much unclaimed top-prize money is left in Connecticut?

At least $31.4M in top prizes is still unclaimed across Connecticut's active games, covering 334 individual top prizes. Treat that as a floor. We count only games whose top prize is $10,000 or more, only games whose lottery publishes a remaining count, and only the top tier of each game.

How these numbers are built
Game counts, odds, payout rates and remaining prizes come from the Connecticutlottery's own game pages, re-scraped daily. Top-prize figures count only games whose top prize is $10,000 or more: a game topping out at $100 can print hundreds of thousands of them, which would swamp every real jackpot in the total. Monthly claim counts come from our snapshot archive, which starts in March 2026. Sales figures are typed in by hand from annual reports and each row links the document it came from. Where a lottery does not publish a figure we show a dash rather than filling the gap, which is why some columns are sparse for some states.
