Where these numbers come from
Game counts, odds, payouts, and prizes left come from the Marylandlottery's own website, and we check it every day. For top prizes, we only count games with a top prize of $10,000or more. A game with a $100 top prize can have hundreds of thousands of them, and that would throw off the totals. Our monthly claim counts start in March 2026. We copy sales numbers by hand from each yearly report, and every row links to where it came from. If the lottery doesn't publish a number, we show a dash instead of guessing.
