All state lotteries have pick-3 and pick-4 prize liability limit, but it varies from state to state. For instance it's $1.5 million in KY and $5 million in NY. New Jersey doesn't need a limit because their payoffs are pari-mutual, but I believe they have an aggregate limit on the secondary MM and PB prizes and if reached would payout those prizes pari-mutually.

The NJ pari-mutual payoffs work both ways because I won $587 each on the two pick-3 straight numbers I played.

Knew lots of people that played over $20 or more on more than one pick-3 straight combo and some of them won large amounts of money. Saw people buying multiple tickets on the same lotto, MM, and PB combos too. Regardless of the game, it's all about players creating their own jackpots and with a little bit of luck, hopefully you can win lots of money.

Speaking of pick 4, can you still win the maximum amount for a straight if there are repeating numbers, like 2244 or 7771 or 7777

Thanks zephbe. Interesting story also but looking for the story on the person who bought 700 tickets.

Congratulations, but winning tickets like that are only sold around the Virginia Lottery Headquarters.

Guaranteed, no where else in the state of Virginia

In TN the maximum for a draw in pick 3 and 4 is $5 Million

Thanks. I googled it and cannot find an official lottery source, only references on blogs, etc. 700 tickets

Didn't find the original story but check out this link ... the guy's name is William Harvey and he's referenced in a post midway down the 1st page of the thread:

I couldn't find it either ... bummer. I remember it though, he lived in NJ and worked as a GM in construction or something like that in NYC. Happened sometime between 2008-09. I found another closely related story though:

Virginia had lots of pick-4 winners playing the same combo multiple times. In August 2017 Wayne Roles won $160,000 by playing the same number straight 32 times and in November of that year Robert Buckner won $100,000 betting $20 on the same combo. A North Carolina player won over $500,000 in less than a year. There are many stories in other states about players betting the same pick-4 combo multiple times and winning. What you seldom read is how much each of these players spend every day. The NC... [ More ]

That's pretty incredible. I wonder if that's a record for pick 4 winnings in a single drawing. Good for her.

I agree it is news worthy. I was responding to another post about publicity terms in VA. And that is very clearly a woman. Geesh

This IS newsworthy, when you're able to do BETTER AT PICK 4 games, than money-wasting powerball or as my dad say rip off city... and i agree to a point with dad and mom. LOLl

THIS IS GREAT!!!

I was just showing my parents when i seen this on our local news

talking bout it, just a lil brief story in NC, and i was SOOOOO happy hearing this on the news a few days ago and then today here at l-post.

Artist77 — Sun, 10 Mar 2019 18:30:29 GMT

Yea, VA goes way overboard with the publicity. They must lose a lot of money to DC. I avoid buying tickets in VA 99.9% of the time. At least the DC rules are vague so you can use a trust to claim.

Feisty1 — Sun, 10 Mar 2019 17:30:19 GMT

I think NY's limit is either 3 or 4 million on both P3/4 ... not sure of exact number, and the way they notify you is when you can no longer get a number in and the Agent says that number is closed! Unlike NJ that will keep taking your money and then payout something like $9 ... on a straight p3 or $100 for a p4

Comment #9

Bleudog101 — Sun, 10 Mar 2019 16:53:00 GMT

Ky has a limit on how may tickets they sell with a certain combination say 1234 straight. They are not required to notify anybody of the 'liability limit' as they call it. On Cashball 225, the liability limit is fixed to $1 million/draw.

Comment #8

Feisty1 — Sun, 10 Mar 2019 16:48:20 GMT

Yup! It only works that way in a flat payout state (meaning no pari-mutuel payouts) A man did that in NY many years ago ... 1.4 million. Said he had a dream of his deceased mother, played her birthday and WON!!! The story was here on LP so I'm sure you can probably find it ...

Congrats to Ms. Brown!!! I dream of doing the same one day

Comment #7

Bleudog101 — Sun, 10 Mar 2019 16:46:13 GMT

Couldn't find any limit either, Artist77

How about page ten, section 6 about you must agree to the media mess, etc

Comment #6

Artist77 — Sun, 10 Mar 2019 16:29:45 GMT

Interesting . Congratulations. I don't play pick 4 but is there a maximum amount you can win with multiple tickets? I looked at the rules but did not see anything. So could she have bought 200 tickets and won $1 million

Nice story to start out the week. Home renovation? If home not paid for, pay it off or knock years off of your mortgage.

Virginia woman wins $150,000 lottery payout in one Pick 4 drawing

Lottery Post — Sun, 10 Mar 2019 14:16:43 GMT

Some people have all the luck. In February, that person was Deborah Brown.

When Deborah Brown bought 20 Pick 4 tickets from the Virginia Lottery all with the same four digits for the same drawing she just had a feeling.

A couple of times during the day, I saw those numbers, she said.

A little while later, when she bought 10 more plays again for the same drawing with that same number combination (1-0-3-1) she said she was really feeling it.

Turns out, that feeling was right!
