Daily 4 takes place six days a week, four times a day - with four winning balls drawn from a pool of 9. There are many ways to win in this game, and prizes range from $25 to $5,000 depending on the play type and the cost of play.
Daily 4 draws take place at 10:00 a.m., 12:27 p.m., 6:00 p.m. and 10:12 p.m. CT from Monday through Saturday.
1. Choose four numbers ranging from 0 to 9. Alternatively, if you prefer a randomized approach, you can choose the Quick Pick feature, which automatically generates numbers for you.
2. Choose the play type out of the four options offered.
3. Decide on the draw time: you can play morning, day, evening, or night drawings. You can also choose to play multidraw by selecting the desired number of drawings.
4. Finally, select your play amount and proceed to check out.
For additional cost, you can add the Fireball feature.
The Daily 4 Fireball is a number that is drawn from 0 to 9 after each Daily 4 main number draw. Opting for the Fireball feature allows you to swap any of the four drawn Daily 4 winning numbers with the Daily 4 Fireball number to generate potential Fireball prize-winning combinations. If your chosen numbers align with any of the Fireball prize-winning combinations, you stand to win a prize.
Note that incorporating Fireball into your play doubles the cost of each Daily 4 board played.
There are four distinct play types available, each offering unique avenues to bolster your chances of winning or aiming for a larger prize:
These diverse play types offer flexibility, allowing you to select the strategy that aligns best with your preferences.
In Daily 4 you can win up to $5,000 per game. There are several ways to win a prize in the Daily 4 game, and each play type has its prize. You can check all the prizes and the odds of winning in each prize tier in the table below:
