Price is the strongest predictor of payout on a scratcher: the more a ticket costs, the larger the share of its price the lottery returns in prizes. In Georgia today, $2 games average 73.0%, $3 games average 75.8%, $5 games average 72.1%, $10 games average 77.1%, $20 games average 74.0%, $30 games average 81.2%. That is an average, not a rule: within this $50 tier the spread between the best and worst game is 1.4 payout points, which is why the table matters more than the tier.
