Wow, Today’s Pick 4 Results! The Popularity of ‘Quads’ In Action

Did you SEE the results in today’s midday Pick 4 drawing? Holy buckets, there were big winners all across the state! It shows the popularity of “quads” in the game.

I’ve blogged before about plays made up of identical numbers are in our Pick 3 and Pick 4 games. I’m talking about combinations like 2-2-2 in Pick 3 and 5-5-5-5 in Pick 4. They’re called “trips” in Pick 3 and “quads” in Pick 4, and they’ve always been some of the most popular plays purchased in those games. When those winning numbers are selected in a drawing, the results can be eye-catching.

The latest example of that happened earlier today! The winning numbers in today’s midday Pick 4 drawing were 7-7-7-7, and Iowa Lottery players won 19 prizes ranging from $6,000 up to $120,000. (The bigger amounts were won by players who bought multiple plays with identical numbers, all on one ticket.)
