The $3,000 Loaded ($30) currently has the best overall odds in Tennessee at 1 in 2.74. The state average across all 84 active Tennessee scratch-offs is 1 in 4, so this ticket gives you significantly better odds than a typical game. It carries a ValueScore of 78 out of 100. Keep in mind that overall odds cover all prize levels, including small wins. The odds of winning a large prize are much lower.

As of our latest update, 84 out of 84 active scratch-off games in Tennessee still have at least one top prize unclaimed.

ScratchCheck calculates a ValueScore of 0 to 100 for every active Tennessee scratch-off. The rating weighs four factors: Expected Value, Prize Quality, Win Frequency, and Inventory Health. A score of 80 or above is Excellent, 60 to 79 is Good, 40 to 59 is Fair, and below 40 is Poor. The top-rated game in Tennessee right now is the $3,000 Loaded with a score of 78. Scores change automatically as prizes are claimed, so a highly-rated game today may drop next week if top prizes run out.

Among $5 tickets in Tennessee, the Jumbo Bucks Collectible (Game #1395) currently has the best overall odds at 1 in 3.62 with a ValueScore of 50 out of 100. Five-dollar tickets typically offer better prize structures than $1 or $2 tickets, with higher top prizes and more prize tiers. Check the $5 filter on the Tennessee page to compare all active $5 games side by side.

The optimizer takes a budget and a goal (Breakeven, Jackpot Chase, or Best EV) and re-ranks all active Tennessee games that cost at or below your budget. Breakeven ranks by the per-ticket probability of winning back at least the ticket price, using published prize odds. Jackpot Chase ranks by expected top-prize dollars per $1 spent, using remaining top prizes and remaining tickets. Best EV ranks by published expected value per dollar. Games with missing inputs sort last. Rankings update live as you move the budget slider.

Tennessee publishes prize amounts and how many of each prize are still unclaimed, so ScratchCheck shows remaining prizes and which top prizes are gone. Tennessee does not publish per-tier odds or the original number of each prize printed, so payout percentages and full inventory scoring aren't available. The prizes and remaining counts shown are official, not estimated.

Tennessee scratch-off data is updated 2 to 3 times per week from official Tennessee Lottery publications. Odds and prize amounts are official; Tennessee does not publish prize inventory (remaining/total counts), so those metrics are unavailable.
