Louisiana Pick 4

Pick 4 is a daily numbers game where players select four numbers from 0000 to 9999. Drawings are held daily. There are several ways to play, each with different odds and prizes.

How to Play

1. Select Your Numbers: Choose four digits, each ranging from 0 to 9. You can either choose your own numbers or opt for a "Quick Pick" where the numbers are randomly generated.
2. Choose Your Play Type: Decide how you want to match your numbers to the winning numbers:
   • Straight: Match all four numbers in the exact order they are drawn to win the top prize.
   • Box: Match all four numbers in any order. Payouts vary depending on the combinations of digits chosen (e.g., four different digits, two pairs, etc.).
   • Straight/Box: Combines the Straight and Box plays. You win if your numbers match in exact order (smaller Straight prize), or if they match in any order (Box prize). The Straight/Box prize is split between the Straight and Box portions of the wager.
   • Front Pair: Match the first two numbers in exact order.
   • Back Pair: Match the last two numbers in exact order.
   • Split Pair: Match the 1st and 3rd numbers in exact order.
   • Front 3: Match the first three numbers in exact order.
   • Back 3: Match the last three numbers in exact order.
3. Purchase Your Ticket: Buy your ticket from an authorized Louisiana Lottery retailer.
4. Check the Winning Numbers: Drawings are held daily. Check the official Louisiana Lottery website or your local retailer to see the winning numbers.
