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 Mississippi as of November 6, 2026, $2 games average 67.8%, $3 games average 67.0%, $5 games average 80.4%, $10 games average 65.6%, $20 games average 72.4%.
