Sounds good.
I hope one day we get a pick 6 game here.
This Jumbo Bucks Lotto,looks like a Pick 6 game to me.
The other game ,All or Nothing, has 6 numbers to pick, but only has top prize of $250K.
This new game can grow big time jackpots in the long run.
Have fun GA LP.
cool

fine by me!! Come on 03 !
U need to read playslip. Not good to make up ur own rules. If a 3 was in your quikpic. You wouldve won $500 smh.
That's not how it works bud. You have to have a 3 in your picks.
I bought $20 worth, and won back $3 :-)
I'm not understanding all these comments. The first drawing has not taken place yet. It happens at 11:00 PM tonight. Also, a $3 prize is not even offered. $5 is the lowest prize. Are you guys feeling OK?
CJ is ok not sure about Matt Todd. If you pay an extra $1 and it matches one of your numbers you could win up to $500. I bought one with the cash match option and won $1
Ah, ok, he was talking about the Cash Match. Everyone was posting draw numbers, so I'd assumed that's what he was referring to. Makes sense now.
Not making up my own rules just making a mistake which im sure you never do!!
Aww did I offend you.. Sorry. Just didn't want you thinking you was about to win $500 if a 3 dropped... That's why it's an instant prize... Even the ticket prints..
match any cash match # below with any of your job lotto #s above and win the prize shown instantly. Multiplier only applies to cash match. Present winning tkt to clerk to claim prize and receive and exchange tkt..
Reading is fundamental.
Just got another ticket
