Cash Drop is a $2 scratch-off from the New York Lottery (game #1627) with a top prize of $25,000 and overall odds of 1 in 4.81 at launch. 7 of 8 top prizes are gone, 1 is still unclaimed, and an estimated 15% of tickets remain.

The board here runs twelve prize levels, from break-even wins up to $25,000, and the money leans toward lots of smaller wins. Games built like this tend to pay out in small, steady doses instead of rare big hits. That part doesn't change day to day — it's the piece of the game you actually get to choose. Everything above comes from the New York Lottery's own published numbers — we just do the counting.
