50X The Money — $20 Virginia Scratcher #2305
50X The Money (#2305) is a $20 Virginia scratcher launched on May 1, 2025. As of November 6, 2026 it ranks #1 of 62 active games on current payout (115.8%, $23.15 expected back per ticket) and #1 of 10 $20 games, #24 on any-prize odds (1 in 3.97) and #13 on top-prize odds (1 in 219,380). Since launch the payout has risen 32.7 points (83.1% at launch) and your chance of winning something has fallen 23.7% (1 in 3.03 at launch). 1 of 3 top prizes of $3,000,000* remain, and we estimate 219,380 tickets are still unsold (93.5% 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 Virginia scratchers to buy. A caution on the current figures: a current payout of 115.8% says the unclaimed prizes are worth more than the unsold tickets cost. A game can get there late in its run, when large prizes go unhit, but that is also where our estimate of the tickets left is least reliable (4.9% of this game's prizes are left), so read the figure as approximate, not as a reason to buy. And the any-prize odds have moved from 1 in 3.03 to 1 in 3.97, further than a game's odds really move. Its prize tiers disagree about how many tickets are left (between 0.12 million and 0.19 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).
