Lowest-Value Florida
Scratch-Offs Right Now
As of , Scratch IQ surfaces the bottom 10 active Florida scratch-off games by current EV/Dollar — the weakest remaining value in the state right now.
A low EV/Dollar means the statistical return per $1 spent is below what other games in the state currently offer. That can happen because the headline jackpots are gone, or because the smaller prize tiers have depleted faster than tickets sold while top prizes remain — this list ranks by current return and does not assume a cause. See the methodology for the formula and per-state data sources.

Common questions about Florida scratch-offs
What makes a Florida scratch-off low-value?
A low EV/Dollar means the expected return per $1 is below what comparable games still offer. That can happen because the larger prizes have been claimed, or because the smaller prize tiers have depleted faster than tickets sold while top prizes remain. The published overall odds stay the same either way — only the expected return changes.
How often is the Florida lowest-value list updated?
Every day. Scratch IQ collects Florida Lottery remaining-prize data once daily and recomputes EV/Dollar for every active game. A game can move on or off this list as prize counts change or as it transitions to ended status when the Florida Lottery removes it from circulation.
Why would a Florida game rank at the bottom of this list?
A game ranks low because its remaining prizes are worth less per dollar than other Florida games right now. Sometimes that is because the headline prizes are gone; sometimes the top prizes are still unclaimed and the smaller tiers have simply thinned out. This list ranks by current EV/Dollar and does not assume a cause — check each game's page for its remaining prize counts.
What is a healthy EV/Dollar baseline for Florida scratch-offs?
Most state lottery scratch-offs publish overall payout percentages in the $0.60–$0.75 per dollar range at launch. A current EV/Dollar at or above the launch payout is healthy; a current EV/Dollar well below the launch payout is the signal Scratch IQ surfaces here. The methodology page explains the formula and notes the per-game data published by floridalottery.com.
