What does the score mean?
The score is the existing feed’s Balanced model: a weighted comparison of games, on a scale from 0 to 100. It is not an official Florida Lottery rating, a win probability or a prediction of profit.
The model compares six signals. Some are normalized against the games in the dataset; others measure a share of reported prizes. Adjustments for exhausted top prizes and depleted prize pools can change the final score.
| Signal | Weight |
|---|---|
| Total prize value signal | 25% |
| Mid-range prize signal | 20% |
| Top-prize access signal | 20% |
| Weighted prize availability | 15% |
| Top-prize share remaining | 10% |
| Published overall win frequency | 10% |
Filtering by price keeps these scores unchanged. The model’s value signal multiplies published tier probabilities by the share of prizes remaining and subtracts ticket cost. Without a reliable count of unsold tickets, that is a model assumption; it should not be presented as the actual current expected return of a ticket. The comparison leaves that monetary estimate out of the comparison board.
Unclaimed does not mean unsold
Remaining-prize counts describe prizes that have not been reported as claimed. They cannot identify the location of a winning ticket, or whether that ticket has already been sold.
“Prizes left” divides reported remaining winning prizes by the reported original winning-prize count. It does not measure the share of all tickets still on sale. The top-prize column applies the same comparison to the game’s highest prize amount.
Read published odds in context
Overall odds describe the game’s published chance of winning any prize, which may include winning back only the ticket price. They do not describe profit, a guaranteed pattern of wins, or the chance for a particular store’s tickets.
A game can have many reported prizes remaining and still have no top prizes left. Compare the prize table with the overall odds instead of treating either number as a forecast.
Where the data comes from
This dataset contains 96 games captured from the existing KeysVantage lottery data feed. The feed labels its latest update as . Each game page also displays its own source date.
The existing service collects public Florida Lottery game information and calculates its own comparison scores. The website displays the most recent available observation. Collection delays or rejected source records can leave some game observations older than others; always check the displayed date.
Limits of prize data
The current feed has repeated numeric prize amounts for 76 of96 games. Detail tables combine equal amounts. Recurring and lifetime prizes can share nominal amounts with cash prizes; these numbers must not be interpreted as lifetime cash values.
Model scores depend on the source counts and these valuation limits. They are comparative model outputs, not verified recommendations to buy a ticket. Check the official game rules and prize information before relying on any displayed amount.
