Good to know
- One line, two chances. Every $3 play is in both the Classic Draw and the Gold Ball Draw. Your numbers only matter for the first one.
- Pool prizes can be shared. The 4 of 6 and 5 of 6 prizes come from a pool split among winners, and the $5 million Classic prize is shared if several selections match. Random numbers are less likely to be shared than birthdays, with the same chance of winning.
- The EXTRA is a separate game. It costs $1 more and uses its own number, so it isn’t covered here.
