$500,000 Crossword — $20 Colorado Scratch Game #364
As of October 14, 2026, $500,000 Crossword ($20, #364) has no $500,000 top prize left: every one has been claimed. Colorado prints its overall odds as 1 in 3.04.
No payout figure, on purpose. Colorado publishes how many of each prize were printed, but how many are left only for the top prize. A payout, an expected value or the odds today each need every prize level and how many were printed, so for Colorado we show exactly what its lottery publishes and compute nothing from it. A figure built from part of a table would be wrong, not rough: it is how one state's partial table produced games that appeared to pay back more than they cost. How we treat partial prize tables.
