A player who reached out to us with questions about our Pick 3 and Pick 4 games had an important detail about them wrong, and we wondered if other people have thought the same thing. It’s not a series of numbers that's selected in those games’ drawings, but rather, individual numbers that are chosen by separate ball-drawing machines.
The player had wondered why it’s possible that the same number can be selected more than once in a drawing, or why the same combination of numbers can be selected in multiple drawings. The short answer is that’s exactly how those games are designed to work. There would be something wrong in the games if numbers couldn’t be selected more than once.
In Pick 3 and Pick 4, separate sets of drawing balls numbered 0-9 are loaded into multiple drawing machines so that each machine contains identical sets of numbers. Each machine then selects a number, and the result from each of those separate drawings has no impact on the others. The odds are the same for any number being selected. That’s how a winning combination like 2-2-2 or 1-1-1-1 can be and have been selected. That’s also how the same combination of winning numbers can be selected in more than one drawing.
That’s different than some other lottery games where the drawing balls are all loaded into one machine that selects all of the winning numbers.
It’s a twist that I think makes Pick 3 and Pick 4 so unique and interesting to play!
