A Note about "$500,000 Crossword" Scratch-Off Game in Colorado

The state of Colorado only provides the total number of the grand prizes remaining.

Because of this, we're unable to estimate the number of remaining scratch-off tickets or calculate the current odds for prizes lower than the grand prize.

For the grand prize, the calculations are based only on the number of remaining prizes for that specific prize tier, rather than the total number of tickets left in the game. As a result, the odds displayed for these prizes will differ from the actual overall odds of winning.

The odds and statistics for Colorado's scratch-off games are based on official lottery data processed through statistical models. This is to help players understand their chances of winning in Colorado's scratch-off games. Here's how each metric is determined:
