How to Play Daily 4

In order to enter Daily 4, you must select four single-digit numbers between 0 and 9. If you’re not too sure which number combination to choose, you can mark the “QP” box on your ticket and you will get a random set of numbers generated by the lottery terminal. Alternatively, you can just ask the lottery retailer for a “Quick Pick” ticket.

You can even make use of the Daily four number generator. This smart tool will generate a random set of single-digit numbers in a few seconds, ready to use for your entry.

After carefully selecting your numbers, you must then choose one of the five play styles from the list below:

  • Straight (Exact Order) - You win a prize if your numbers match the winning numbers in the exact order that they were drawn
  • Box (Any Order) - You win a prize if your numbers match the winning numbers in any order
  • Straight/Box (Exact or Any Order) - This play style allows you to play both Exact and Any Order. You will win a prize in case you match the winning numbers in Exact Order or in Any Order
  • Combo – This play type allows you to play all possible Straight (Exact Order) combinations of your numbers on one ticket
  • Pairs - This play type has three possible options: Front Pair, Mid Pair and Back Pair: With Front Pair, you win if your numbers match in the exact order the first two numbers which were drawn. With Mid Pair, matching your numbers with the second and third numbers drawn in the exact order will get you a prize The Back Pair option makes you a winner if the last two numbers drawn match your last numbers in the exact order

You must buy your tickets before sales close ahead of each draw. The cut-off times are 9:50 AM CT, 12:17 PM CT, 5:50 PM CT and 10:02 PM CT.

Fireball Option

For more chances to win, you can add the Fireball option to your Daily 4 ticket. After the main Daily 4 draw takes place, a separate draw is held and a Fireball number, from 0 to 9, is chosen.

The Fireball gives you an extra number which you can use to replace any of the Daily 4 numbers, thus giving you more ways to create a winning combination. For example, if you play a Straight and predict the numbers to be 1234, you would win normally win if the numbers drawn were 1230. However, if the Fireball was a 4, you could swap out the ‘0’ for the Fireball of 4 and it would give you a win.

Adding Fireball will double the cost of all Daily 4 plays.

Additionally, you can select your Daily 4 numbers for a particular draw time. Choose between “Morning”, “Day”, “Evening” and “Night” (or all), then specify the number of drawings you want to enter.
