Prize Activity Summary
Over the past 31 days, scratch-off games in this state paid out approximately $105.4 million in prizes, averaging $3.4 million per day across 53 active games. $10,000,000 Bankroll leads in prize activity with $11.4 million claimed ($50 ticket). Only 1 top prize remains. $250,000 Crossword follows with $9.5 million in claims.
Smart Combo Strategies by Price Tier
Our analysis found that some Illinois scratch-off tickets can be beaten by buying a combination of cheaper tickets with higher total expected value. Here's a breakdown by price tier.
| Price Tier | Games Improved | Avg EV Improvement | Best Combo Example |
|---|---|---|---|
| $2 | 3 of 5 games (60.0%) | +3.3% | 2x Emeralds ($1) |
| $3 | 3 of 5 games (60.0%) | +4.3% | 1x 10X® Xtra ($2) + 1x Emeralds ($1) |
| $5 | 1 of 13 games (7.7%) | +3.4% | 1x Bonus Word Crossword ($3) + 1x 10X® Xtra ($2) |
| $10 | 7 of 13 games (53.8%) | +5.3% | 2x Emerald 7s ($5) |
| $20 | 7 of 8 games (87.5%) | +4.4% | 2x $1,000,000 Ca$h Cha$er ($10) |
| $25 | 2 of 2 games (100.0%) | +4.7% | 1x $2,000,000 Celebration ($20) + 1x Emerald 7s ($5) |
| $30 | 3 of 3 games (100.0%) | +1.9% | 1x $2,000,000 Celebration ($20) + 1x $1,000,000 Ca$h Cha$er ($10) |
| $50 | 1 of 2 games (50.0%) | +0.3% | 2x $2,000,000 Celebration ($20) + 1x $1,000,000 Ca$h Cha$er ($10) |
Expected value improvement is calculated from current remaining prizes. Combo strategies use the best-performing game at each cheaper price tier.
Games With Better Alternatives
These games have a cheaper ticket combination that delivers more expected value for the same price.
How We Calculate Value & ROI
We use real-time remaining prizes data to figure out the Return on Investment (ROI) for every active scratchers game.
Expected Value (EV) = total dollar amount you can expect to win back per ticket, based on:
- Every remaining prize tier
- Current probability of hitting each prize (remaining count ÷ estimated tickets left)
ROI = (EV − ticket price) ÷ ticket price × 100%
- Positive ROI (e.g., +12%) → the scratchers game is currently profitable on average
- Negative ROI → expected loss per dollar spent (most games fall here)
This situation changes frequently as players claim prizes and the Illinois Lottery updates official data. We recommend checking back regularly, as new games and updated prize data can create fresh opportunities.
Odds vs ROI – What Actually Matters?
Odds tell you the chance of winning any prize on a single lottery ticket. For example, 1 in 4 odds means you have about a 25% chance of winning something (any amount) on average. It's based on the total prizes and tickets printed by the Illinois Lottery, and it doesn't change much as prizes are claimed.
ROI (Return on Investment) measures how much money you can expect to get back per dollar spent on scratchers, after accounting for the current remaining prizes and their values. It's basically expected value minus ticket price.
In short:
- Odds = probability of winning something
- ROI = actual money value of the game based on what's left to win
Smart Tips for Playing Illinois Scratchers
- Focus on Illinois scratchers with the highest ROI and expected value to maximize your wins.
- Check Best Value and Best Odds tabs above for the current top performers.
- New releases (see Newest tab) start with all prizes intact and typically give you the best chance of winning a big prize.
- Games approaching their end date can sometimes offer interesting opportunities if significant prizes remain unclaimed (see Ending Soon tab when available).
- Avoid games where all top prizes have been claimed — their ROI drops significantly.
- Check back often — ticket data changes daily!
- Never play more than you can afford to lose. Even with our data, it is still a game of chance.
Current Illinois Scratch-Off Insights
There are currently 5 games with all top prizes claimed.
Why play new releases? Recently launched games start with all prizes intact and often give you the best mathematical edge.
When top prizes are gone, the expected value of remaining tickets drops — focus instead on games still showing strong ROI in the table above.
