· Oregon

The Oregon lottery's own prizes-remaining data shows a top prize of $30K claimed on $30,000 Gold Rush, a $5 scratch-off. 0 of the 2 printed now remain.

The change appeared in the published data on September 24, 2026. Lotteries publish with a lag, so the prize itself may have been claimed a day or more earlier. The figures do not say who claimed it or where, and neither do we.

With no top prize left, $30,000 Gold Rush can still pay its smaller prizes, but it can no longer pay the prize on its poster. Lotteries are not required to pull a game when its top prizes run out, and generally do not.

Overall odds on $30,000 Gold Rush are 1 in 4.14. They were fixed at printing and describe the whole run, including every prize already claimed.

The lottery no longer lists this game.

What this does not say

That any ticket is a good buy. Every scratch game returns less than it takes in, with or without its top prize.
