Idaho's own figure

Idaho publishes these figures for the game as a whole. They are shown as Idaho prints them and combined with nothing: set against each other they would make a payout, which Idaho's own counts cannot support.

No payout figure, on purpose. Idaho publishes how many of each prize were printed, but how many are left only for prizes of $25 and up. A payout, an expected value or the odds today each need every prize level and how many were printed, so for Idaho 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.

Prizes remaining, as Idaho publishes them

This is a partial prize table. Idaho publishes the top nine prize levels of Galactic Cash and how many of each were printed and are left. The levels below are not published, so they are not here. Nothing in this table is an estimate. For the complete prize structure see the game's page on the Idaho Lottery site.
