Frequently asked questions

How is top-prize odds calculated?
Top-prize odds are the chance that a ticket bought today is one of the remaining top-prize winners, from unclaimed top prizes against tickets we estimate remain.
Who should use the top-prize odds ranking?
For players who only care about the biggest prize on the ticket. These odds are in the millions for most games; small differences between games are real but do not change the fact that you will almost certainly not win it.
Which Connecticut game is #1 on top-prize odds today?
$500 LOADED! (#1873, $10) on September 22, 2026. The bottom of the list is $20,000 A YEAR FOR LIFE 2ND ED (#1725, $2).
How current are these numbers?
They come from Connecticut Lottery prize figures captured on September 22, 2026 and are recomputed daily. Rankings move when prizes are claimed, especially large ones.
