$4,000,000 Mayhem — $10 Massachusetts Scratch Ticket #354

Data captured · launched April 19, 2022

$4,000,000 Mayhem (#354) is a $10 Massachusetts scratch ticket launched on April 19, 2022. As of October 25, 2026 it ranks #113 of 129 active games on current payout (64.4%, $6.44 expected back per ticket) and #34 of 35 $10 games, #102 on any-prize odds (1 in 5.73) and #113 on top-prize odds (—). Since launch the payout has fallen 19.8 points (84.3% at launch) and your chance of winning something has fallen 39.5% (1 in 3.47 at launch). 0 of 3 top prizes of $4,000,000 ($200K/YR/20YRS) remain, and we estimate 349,328 tickets are still unsold (97.8% sold). Its current figures fail our plausibility check (the caution below), so whatever its place in the list, we do not count it among the best Massachusetts scratch tickets to buy. A caution on the current figures: the any-prize odds have moved from 1 in 3.47 to 1 in 5.73, further than a game's odds really move. Its prize tiers disagree about how many tickets are left (between 0.10 million and 0.28 million), usually because small prizes are claimed late, and the current odds and payout lean on that disagreement. The printed odds are the safer guide, and our summaries do not name this game the best of anything (how we estimate).
