Michigan Lottery: Michigan Lottery Introduces 'Front Pair Payout' Promotion for Daily 4 Michigan Lottery players will soon have yet another way to win cash prizes with the Lottery's Daily 4 game thanks to the Lottery's newest promotion -- "Front Pair Payout."
In the Daily 4 game, Lottery players choose any four-digit number and then place a $1 bet for that drawing. There are three different ways to place bets in the Daily 4 game -- straight, boxed and two-way. If a player chooses to play a number straight, he or she would need to match the number he or she picked in the exact order chosen to win a $5,000 cash prize.
Beginning September 8, 2003 and running through September 28, 2003, players whose straight bets match the first two numbers drawn will receive a $10 payout. The odds of matching the front pair are a mere 1 in 101, which is much easier to win than any other Daily 4 prize. Daily 4 winning numbers are drawn twice a day -- midday (12:58 p.m.) and evening (7:28 p.m.) -- and this great promotion applies to both the midday and evening Daily 4 drawings.
"Some of the Lottery's most popular promotions have been tied to the Daily 3 & 4 games," Michigan Lottery Commissioner Gary Peters said. "The odds of winning in the 'Front Pair Payout' promotion are very good, so I am confident our players will be very excited about this new offering!"
The "Front Pair Payout" promotion will be supported by statewide television, radio and newspaper advertising.
