Minnesota Lottery Scratch-Offs
Odds, Prizes & Rankings

Quick answer

The Minnesota Lottery currently has 41 active scratch-off games priced from $1 to $50. Scratch IQ tracks each game's odds, prices and remaining prizes from official lottery data and ranks all 41 by expected value per dollar — the Minnesota Lottery publishes launch data only, so rankings change when games are added or retired.

As of , Scratch IQ ranks 41 active Minnesota scratch-off games by EV/Dollar using public Minnesota Lottery data, updated daily.

EV/Dollar is the statistical return per $1 spent given the prizes still left in circulation. Prize Ratio tracks how fast top prizes are depleting versus tickets overall — a ratio above 1.0 means top prizes are depleting more slowly. See the methodology for the formula and per-state data sources. You can also compare the biggest unclaimed prize in every state.

Common questions about Minnesota scratch-offs

Are scratch-off odds the same when fewer prizes remain?

Not exactly. The probability of winning any prize on a single ticket stays close to the published overall odds, but the remaining prize pool shifts as winners are claimed. When the headline top prize on a Minnesota game has already been won, the remaining tickets still pay smaller prizes, so the expected return per dollar drops. Scratch IQ tracks remaining prize counts daily and recomputes EV/Dollar so you see the current value, not the launch-day value.

How does Scratch IQ rank Minnesota scratch-offs?

Every active Minnesota scratch-off is ranked by EV/Dollar, the statistical return per $1 spent, using the prizes still left in circulation. The formula and per-tier inputs are documented on the methodology page. Rankings update once daily as new Minnesota Lottery data is published. Top Prize Ratio adds context: when it exceeds 1.0, top prizes are depleting more slowly than tickets overall.

Where does Minnesota lottery prize data come from?

Public data published by the Minnesota Lottery on mnlottery.com. The lottery posts each game's overall odds, prize tiers, total prizes printed, and prizes remaining. Scratch IQ collects those public numbers daily and applies the same EV formula to every state it covers. Scratch IQ does not receive private data from the Minnesota Lottery and is not affiliated with the Minnesota Lottery.

Does Minnesota lottery prohibit scratch-off EV calculation?

EV calculation uses publicly published prize counts, the same numbers anyone can read on the Minnesota Lottery's website. Calculating expected value from public data is a long-standing practice in lottery analysis taught in university statistics courses and used in retail player communities. Scratch IQ's analysis is informational, is not gambling advice, does not modify lottery outcomes, and does not interfere with Minnesota Lottery operations.
