Price is the strongest predictor of payout on a scratcher: across a lottery's games, pricier tickets tend to return a larger share of their price in prizes. In Massachusetts as of October 25, 2026, $1 games average 71.1%, $2 games average 64.5%, $5 games average 75.4%, $10 games average 82.6%, $20 games average 84.5%, $50 games average 63.0%. That is a tendency, not a rule: within this $30 tier the spread between the best and worst game is 12.8 payout points, which is why the table matters more than the tier.
