On a LOTTARIO Selection Slip, mark six numbers from 1 to 45 on up to 10 boards. Or ask for a Quick Pick and the lottery terminal will randomly select your numbers. You will receive a ticket with your numbers plus a free random set of numbers for each board you play.
Match the numbers drawn to win. Six regular numbers and one Bonus number are drawn. Tickets purchased before 12 midnight (Eastern Time) Friday are also eligible for a separate EARLY BIRD draw on draw night. Match all four EARLY BIRD numbers and win a share of the $50,000 EARLY BIRD prize.
50% percent of LOTTARIO draw sales are dedicated to the Prize Fund.
The total amount of the $5 prizes and $50,000 (for the EARLY BIRD prize pool) are paid from the Prize Fund and the balance of the fund (the Pools Fund) is then allocated between the 4/6, 5/6, 5/6+Bonus and 6/6 prize categories as indicated in the table below.
If there is more than one winner in a prize category, the prize in that category will be shared among the winners in that category.
Any amount not won in the 6/6, 5/6+Bonus, 5/6 or 4/6 prize categories is added to the 6/6 Jackpot prize for the next draw.

Jackpot (6/6 number matches) funds accumulate if not won and may grow beyond the $250,000 guaranteed minimum.
A winning set of numbers entitles a winner to a prize in only one of the above regular draw prize categories. Eligible tickets can also win an EARLY BIRD prize.
The prize pool for LOTTARIO is based on a pari-mutuel share. A pari-mutuel share is a calculation where the total monies allocated to a prize category are divided by the total number of winners in that category. Sometimes, customers select certain number combinations more often than other number combinations, and this may result in a reduced prize share. Some of the more popular combinations are based on sequence of numbers, vertical, horizontal or diagonal lines on selection slips, multiples of numbers, variations of historic dates or birth dates, etc. These combinations vary from draw to draw and change depending on customer play patterns
LOTTARIO prizes must be claimed within 12 months of the draw date.
