Common questions
Which state has the most scratch-off games?
Georgia sells the most, with 204 scratch-off games on sale. Next are New York (110) and Michigan (108). All 44 states we track have 2,844 games on sale in total.
Which state has the best scratch-off odds?
Oklahoma has the best average odds at 1 in 3.29, then Iowa at 1 in 3.47. These odds count every prize, including small ones. Better odds mean you win small prizes more often. They don't mean a better shot at the top prize.
How much scratch-off prize money is still out there?
At least $3.6B in top prizes hasn't been won yet across the 44 states we track, spread across 6,877 top prizes. The real number is higher. We only count top prizes worth $10,000 or more, and only in games where the lottery tells us how many are left.
Which state spends the most per person on scratch-offs?
Of the 10 states where we have sales numbers from the lottery's yearly report, Georgia is highest at $308 in scratch-off sales for every person in the state. That counts everyone who lives there, not just people who play.
