The New Jersey State Lottery: Pick 3 EVE
Pick-3 is a three-digit draw game drawn twice daily. The ways to win, in the order of payouts from highest to lowest, are:
• Straight - Matching all three digits exactly as they are drawn. Minimum play is 50 cents.
• Wheel - Match all three digits in any order and win the straight payout. Minimum play is $1.50 (if two digits are the same, such as 211) or $3.00 for three different digits (such as 123.)
• Box - Matching all three digits in any order. Minimum play is 50 cents.
• Pair - A two-digit wager; either the first and second digits, or the second and third.
• Split - Also a two-digit wager, but with the first and last digits. Minimum play is 50 cents.
Typically, the straight payout is over $250, and the box payout (where the three digits are different) averages $38.[2] Unlike most lotteries, New Jersey pays winners of Pick-3 on a parimutuel basis.
