How to Play
Grab your playslip and take a look. It's got five panels, each with a letter, A-E. Each panel is a single play. For each panel you want to play, choose one number from 0 through 9 from each column, so you have a total of four digits. You could also mark QP to have Quick Pick randomly select some or all of the numbers.
To play Front Pair, choose numbers from the first two columns. For Mid Pair, pick numbers from the middle two columns. For a Back Pair play, choose numbers from the last two columns.
Choose your play type: Straight, Box, Straight/Box, Combo, Front Pair, Mid Pair, or Back Pair. Here’s a quick summary of the differences between the play types:
- Straight – You must match the winning numbers in exact order
- Box – The winning numbers can be matched in any order
- Straight/Box – Match the numbers in exact order to win the full prize, or in any order to win just the Box payout
- Combo – Every combination of your four digits is entered as a separate Straight
- Pairs – Match the numbers in exact order to win
You can play for a minimum of 50 cents. All Straight/Box plays cost $1. Combo plays cost between $2 and $24.
Choose the draw time you want to play: MID for midday, EVE for evening, or BOTH for both draws. If you choose BOTH, you'll receive two tickets, one for the midday and one for the evening draw. If you don't select a draw time, you'll receive a ticket for the next available draw.
With Advance Play, you can play your favorite numbers, play types, and draw times for up to 14 consecutive days - just mark the number of days you want to play in the "Days" area.
If you want to claim a prize from a winning Advance Play ticket that still has future drawings left on it, you will be issued a continuation ticket with the same numbers and play types for the remaining draws.
Fireball
Fireball can make your Pick 4 play hot, hot, hot with more ways to win great prizes. Fireball is an add-on option that doubles the cost of your ticket and applies to all panels played.
Here's how it works: A Fireball number is drawn twice a day right after the main draws, and can replace any Pick 4 number drawn for more ways to create a winning match. You can win on Pick 4, Fireball, or even both!
Pick 4 Prizes and Odds of Winning
Players whose numbers match all four numbers drawn may win up to $5,000! Below you can see estimated prize payouts and odds according to the play type selected and amount played. If you played Front Pair, Mid Pair or Back Pair and match two numbers in exact order, you can win $50.

| NOTE: Pick 4 offers set prize payouts and the Florida Lottery has established a $7 million liability limit for any specific 4-digit number in each drawing. If any 4-digit combination (e.g. 7777) is purchased frequently enough for a drawing that the liabilitylimit would be exceeded, the Lottery will stop further sales for that particular number combination. Additionally, no Front Pair, Mid Pair or Back Pair involving the first 2, middle 2 or last 2 digits, respectively, of the 4-digit number will be included in that drawing. Players who have already played the numbers are still eligible to win the full prize amount. | ||||
