Texas Scratcher FAQ

What is the best scratch-off ticket to buy in Texas right now?

The rankings above show every active Texas scratcher ordered by return on investment, recalculated daily from the prizes actually remaining.

How are these Texas scratcher rankings calculated?

We pull remaining-prize data from the official Texas Lottery every day, estimate how many tickets are left, and compute each game's expected value: the total value of unclaimed prizes divided by the estimated remaining tickets, minus the ticket price. Games where more prize money remains than ticket sales predict rank higher.

Why do the odds change after a scratcher launches?

The odds printed on the ticket only describe the game at launch. As winning tickets are claimed, the real odds shift — a game that has sold most of its tickets but still has jackpots left offers better odds than its printed numbers, and a game whose top prizes are gone offers worse.

How often is this Texas data updated?

Every morning. We scrape the official Texas Lottery site daily and recalculate odds, ROI, and remaining prizes for every active scratch-off game.
