Straight ¨C A play in which winning is achieved only when the three digits match, in exact order, the winning digits drawn for the draw selected. For example, if the winning digits are ¡°123,¡± only exact order plays of ¡°123¡± in that exact order will be winners.
(ii) Box ¨C A play in which winning is achieved when the three-digits selected match, in any order, the winning numbers drawn for the draw selected.
¡¤ Six-way box. A play in which winning is achieved only when the three digits selected by the player contain three digits and those three digits are contained in any combination of the winning digits drawn for the draw selected. For example, if the winning digits are ¡°123,¡± only any order plays of ¡°123,¡± ¡°132,¡± ¡°213,¡± ¡°231,¡± ¡°312,¡± and ¡°321¡± will be winners.
¡¤ Three-way box. A play in which winning is achieved only when the three digits selected by the player contain two identical digits and one unique digit and those three digits are contained in the winning digits drawn for the draw selected. For example, if the winning digits are ¡°122,¡± only any order plays of ¡°122,¡± ¡°212,¡± and ¡°221¡± will be winners.
(iii) Straight/Box ¨C A play in which winning is achieved when the three digits match, in any order, the winning digits drawn for the draw selected. This wager differs from a Box wager in two ways. The wager amount is a minimum of $1.00 ($0.50 on a straight wager, $0.50 on a box wager). The player can win both the straight and box wager if the three digits they chose are drawn in exact order or the play can win on just the box digits.
¡¤ Six-way Straight/Box. A play in which the player selects three digits with three unique digits and plays $0.50 on a straight play and $0.50 on a box play for a particular draw. For example, if the player selects a ¡°123¡± six-way Straight/Box play: (i) The player will win both the straight and box plays if the winning digits are ¡°123¡± for the draw selected. (ii) The player will win the box play only if the winning digits are ¡°132,¡± ¡°213,¡± ¡°231,¡± ¡°312,¡± or ¡°321¡± for the day selected.
¡¤ Three-way Straight/Box. A play in which the player selects three digits with two identical digits and one unique digit and plays $0.50 on a straight play and $0.50 on a box play for a particular draw. For example, if the player selects ¡°122¡± three-way Straight/Box play: (i) The player will win both the straight and box plays if the winning digits are ¡°122¡± for the draw selected. (ii) The player will win the box play only if the winning digits are ¡°212¡± or ¡°221¡± for the draw selected.
(iv) Combo/Combination ¨C A play in which winning is achieved when the three digits match, in exact order, the winning digits drawn for the draw selected. This wager differs from a Straight wager in that (i) the wager amount is either three-times or six-times the base ticket price and (ii) the player can win the straight wager if the three digits they chose are drawn in any order for the draw selected.
¡¤ Combination six-way. A play in which winning is achieved only when the three digits selected by the player contain three unique digits and those three digits are contained in the winning digits drawn for the draw selected. This play is the equivalent of six straight plays on a single on-line ticket. The cost of this type of play is 6 times the base price. For example, if the player selects a ¡°123¡± combination play, this is a six-way play, and the player will win one straight play if the winning digits are ¡°123,¡± ¡°132,¡± ¡°213,¡± ¡°231,¡± ¡°312,¡± or ¡°321.¡±
¡¤ Combination three-way. A play in which winning is achieved only when the three digits selected by the player contain two identical digits and one unique digit and those three digits are contained in the winning digits drawn for the draw selected. This play is the equivalent of three straight plays on a single on-line ticket. The cost of this type of play is three times the base price. For example, if the player selects a ¡°122¡± combination play, this is a three-way play, and the player will win one straight play if the winning digits are ¡°122,¡± ¡°212,¡± or ¡°221.¡±
B. If no play type is specified by the player the game will default to a straight play.
