Pick 2 is a Florida Lottery draw game with a top prize of $50 and drawings twice a day. There are a variety of play styles for players to choose from, and you can use the Fireball add-on for even more chances to take home a prize. Pick 2 may not have the most fabulous prizes you've ever seen, but the amazing odds more-than make up for it!

Heat up your play with Fireball, an optional Pick 2 add-on that delivers extra ways to win. Fireball doubles the cost of your ticket(s) and applies to all panels on your playslip. Here's how it works:
After the main numbers are drawn, a Fireball number is selected. This Fireball number can be used to replace either of the main Pick 2 numbers, giving players an extra chance to win. You can even win a prize on the base game and the Fireball!

Here are some examples to show how you can make winning combinations on different play types using the Fireball number (based on $1 plays). Remember, you can win a Fireball prize and regular prize on a single ticket, and you can see this in action on our Front Number example!

| Straight, 25 | 20 FB-5 | $30 |
| Box, 25 | 57 FB-2 | $15 |

Players must select the play type for their ticket - these are the conditions that must be met in order for your ticket to win a prize.
You can play up to five tickets using the different panels, A-E, on your playslip. Select one digit from 0 to 9 in each of the number columns on a panel - you can pick the same number twice. You can also mark the "QP" box to be assigned randomly generated Quick Pick numbers.
You need to decide whether to pay $0.50 for your ticket, or $1. The only difference here is that the $1 prizes are twice the size of the $0.50 prizes, nothing else changes.
To choose which of the two daily draws to enter, mark either MID for the Midday draw (1:30 PM), EVE for the Evening draw (9:45 PM), or BOTH for both draws. If no draw time is selected, you'll receive a ticket for the next available draw. If you select BOTH, the terminal will print two separate tickets, one each for Midday and Evening.
Heat up your play with Fireball, an optional Pick 2 add-on that delivers extra ways to win. Fireball doubles the cost of your ticket(s) and applies to all panels on your playslip.
Straight- Match both numbers in the order they were drawn.
Box- Match both numbers in any order.
Straight/Box- This play type always costs $1. If you match the numbers the wrong way round, you win the $0.50 box prize. If they're the right way round, you win the $0.50 Box prize AND the $0.50 Straight prize.
Front or Back Number- You only need to select one of the two numbers for this play type. If you match it in the position it was drawn, you win the prize.
Fireball- After the main numbers are drawn, a Fireball number is selected. This Fireball number can be used to replace either of the main Pick 2 numbers, giving players an extra chance to win.
FL Pick 2 draws take place twice a day at 1:30 PM (Midday draw) and 9:45 (Evening draw).
Ticket sales close 13 minutes before each respective draw, so it's 1:17 PM for the Midday draw and 9:32 PM for the Evening draw.
The price of your ticket depends on your wager amount, which is either $0.50 or $1 per play. You can also play up to five tickets per playslip, so you’ll have to multiply your ticket cost by this amount. Adding the Fireball also costs an additional $1 per play.
The Fireball is an extra number randomly selected after the main draw. If you played this option then you can use this number to create new winning combinations. For example, if you played 1,2 and the numbers came up as 1,1, Fireball-2, you can swap this with one of your numbers and suddenly you're a winner!
Using a single playslip, you can enter the same numbers in up to 14 consecutive draws!
