How We Help You Play Smarter
How do you pick your scratcher? I used to walk up to the counter, scan the available tickets, then pick whichever ticket seemed to catch my eye.
Lottery scratch-offs have fixed prizes and tickets. As people buy tickets, the odds shift—sometimes creating hidden opportunities. For example, if a large number of losing tickets are sold, the remaining odds can shift in your favor. But if all the winners have been sold, it’s probably best to avoid that game.
We crunch the data daily to highlight:
- Games where remaining prizes make the expected return beat the ticket cost (positive ROI)
- New games before prizes thin out
- Games ending soon with prizes still available
- Duds where big prizes have all been claimed
Play responsibly—it’s entertainment first. But when you’re buying scratchers, why not be informed?
