$200,000 GOLDEN PAYOUT — $20 Rhode Island Instant Game #1450
$200,000 GOLDEN PAYOUT (#1450) is a $20 Rhode Island instant game launched on November 30, 2024. As of October 14, 2026 it ranks #39 of 50 active games on current payout (61.7%, $12.34 expected back per ticket) and #7 of 8 $20 games, #41 on any-prize odds (1 in 4.84) and #11 on top-prize odds (1 in 69,759). Since launch the payout has fallen 11.4 points (73.1% at launch) and your chance of winning something has fallen 27.6% (1 in 3.51 at launch). 1 of 2 top prizes of $200,000 remain, and we estimate 69,759 tickets are still unsold (80.9% sold). That is below average for Rhode Island; the Rhode Island ranking lists show better payouts, including at $20. A caution on the current figures: the any-prize odds have moved from 1 in 3.51 to 1 in 4.84, further than a game's odds really move. Its prize tiers disagree about how many tickets are left (between 0.04 million and 0.05 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).
