Sale availability comes from the official Kentucky Available Scratch-Off Games listing; published sale and claim dates take precedence.
*Top prize winners may choose to receive One Hundred Fifty-Six Thousand Dollars ($156,000) in an annual payment ($3,000 per week, annualized) for 20 years, or a one-time lump sum cash payment of Two Million Fifty-Nine Thousand Dollars ($2,059,000).
These are the model’s inputs. A calculated or estimated count is separate from the literal count in the prize table.

About the estimates
Each lottery publishes different information. We use the available game data and stated assumptions to estimate average payouts and tickets left. An unclaimed prize count is not a count of tickets still for sale.
Published prize observations stay separate from estimates. The model uses this game's reported coverage, ticket inventory and count assumptions; unavailable values retain their source explanations.
How we work it out →Game history
We keep the last update of each day, using Eastern Time. If a day has no number, we leave a gap. We don’t fill in guesses.
Past numbers include calculations from archived prize reports. This covers the dates we have collected. 7-day change: insufficient history. 30-day change: insufficient history.
Small changes: less than 1¢ per ticket. The chart zooms in to show them.
