Kentucky Jackpot — $5 Kentucky Scratch-Off #966
As of October 14, 2026, Kentucky Jackpot ($5, #966) still has 1 $125,000 top prize unclaimed. It is #33 of 78 Kentucky scratch-offs on our list (games with a top prize still unclaimed first, by the size of that top prize, then by how many are left, then by the better overall odds). Kentucky prints its overall odds as 1 in 3.52.
No payout figure, on purpose. Kentucky publishes how many prizes are left at each level of a game, but not how many it started with. A payout, an expected value or the odds today each need every prize level and how many were printed, so for Kentucky 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 Kentucky publishes them
This is a partial prize table. Kentucky publishes the nine prize levels of Kentucky Jackpot and how many of each are left. It does not publish how many of each were printed, so how much of the game has been claimed cannot be read from it. Nothing in this table is an estimate.
