What top-prize odds means

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.

Movers this week

No game moved more than a tenth of a payout point in the last seven days; District of Columbia publishes claims in small batches, so most weeks are quiet.

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 District of Columbia game is #1 on top-prize odds today?
Festive $250's (#1641, $5) on October 14, 2026. The bottom of the list is $50 Loaded! (#1665, $1).
How current are these numbers?
They come from District of Columbia Lottery prize figures captured on October 14, 2026 and are recomputed daily. Rankings move when prizes are claimed, especially large ones.
