There is no warning on the games that prizes can be withheld, although the fine print does say that winners are “subject to Lottery rules and applicable state law.” Since 2014, scratch-off games have paid out $1 million or more 192 times. The odds of winning $100 is 1 in 38 the odds of winning $5,000 is 1 in 60,000 - and the odds of winning the $10 million grand prize is 1 in 4.2 million, according to the Lottery’s website. But the odds of winning big payouts are minuscule.įor example, the $30 Super Max The Money game has overall odds of winning at 1 in 2.78. The odds of winning a prize with any particular game vary slightly, but all are roughly 1 in 3.
