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 Rhode Island as of October 14, 2026, $2 games average 62.2%, $5 games average 63.2%, $10 games average 65.5%, $20 games average 71.9%. That is a tendency, not a rule: within this $30 tier the spread between the best and worst game is 8.6 payout points, which is why the table matters more than the tier.
