$50,000 Star Cashword is a $2 scratch-off from the Massachusetts Lottery (game #414) with a top prize of $50,000 and overall odds of 1 in 4.23 at launch. 14 of 15 top prizes are gone, 1 is still unclaimed, and an estimated 2% of tickets remain. Across every prize tier, 74,808 prizes are still out there (it started with 3,573,270).
Two games can cost the same, promise the same top prize, and still be totally different animals. "$50,000 Star Cashword" is a grinder — it pays out lots of smaller prizes instead of a few monsters — about three-quarters of its unclaimed prize money sits in wins under $200, with the rest stacked up top. Neither style is "better." They're just built for different players. Same time tomorrow — the board will have moved a little, and this page will move with it.
