How to Play Daily 3:
To start, pick any 3-digit number on panel A of the play slip. That is one "play" upon which you can wager either $.50 or $1. You must also choose whether you want to play your wager straight, boxed, wheeled or two-way (see explanations below).
- You can play up to 10 panels per ticket.
- If you don’t want to choose your own numbers, mark "Easy Pick" on the play slip and the computer will randomly pick your numbers.
- When you’ve filled out your play slip, take it to any Daily 3 retailer with the amount of the wager. Your numbers will be entered in the next drawing and you will receive a game ticket.
- ALWAYS check your ticket(s) before leaving the terminal to ensure dates, numbers and drawings are printed exactly as you requested.
- You can play the Daily 3 game for up to 20 consecutive drawings. Just mark the number of drawings you want in the multiple-draw wagers area on the play slip.
Play Your Wager Straight
When the number the Lottery draws matches the number you picked in exactly the same order, you win $500 on a $1 bet or $250 on a $.50 bet.
Play Your Wager Boxed
When the number we draw matches your number in any order, you win. The amount you win depends on the digits you choose -- the lower the number of possible combinations, the higher your winnings.
When you box your bet, the 3-way or 6-way bets are determined by the total number of potential combinations for those digits.
A number with two of the three digits the same (for example: 455) will be considered a 3-way (3 possible combinations) boxed bet. And, if it matches the winning number drawn in any order, you win $166 on a $1 bet or $83 on a $.50 bet.
If the number you select has three different digits (for example: 456), that is a 6-way (6 possible combinations) boxed bet. You can win $83 on a $1 bet or $41 on a $.50 bet.
Play Your Wager Wheeled
A wheel bet offers the easiest way to place a straight wager on each possible combination of the number you select. Your total bet will depend upon how many combinations there are.
For example, a number with two of the three digits the same will have three different combinations. A $1 wheel bet will, in turn, cost $3. A $.50 wheel bet will come to $1.50. If the number you select has three different digits, there will be six possible combinations.
If the number the Lottery draws matches the number you picked -- in any order -- you will win $500 on a $1 wheel bet. On a $.50 wheel bet, you will win $250.
Play Your Wager Two-Way
Two-way betting is really two games in one. Your $1 wager is split -- $.50 straight and $.50 boxed. With a two-way bet, you collect on both the straight and boxed set when the number drawn matches your number in exact order.
The Daily 3 pool closes before both the mid-day and evening drawings. You must make your mid-day wagers before 12:39 p.m. and your evening wagers before 7:08 p.m. the day of the drawing.
