Pick 3 is a three-digit Kansas game where you can win up to $500 twice every day. Tickets only cost $1, and a variety of play styles keep things fun. Midday numbers are drawn every afternoon at 1:10 PM CT, followed by Evening numbers at 9:10 PM CT. You can purchase tickets until 12:59 PM CT for the Midday drawing, and 8:59 PM CT for the Evening drawing.

| Play Type | Example | Prize | Odds of Winning | |
|---|---|---|---|---|

Select three numbers from 0 through 9. You can choose your own or get a Quick Pick if you would prefer a random combination.
You can play in a couple of different ways – Exact Order (also known as a Straight) or Any Order (Box). See the Play Types section for more details. Play up to five times on each play slip by completing one board for each play.
Select the draw time you want to play - Midday, Evening, or Both. Multi-Draw is the easiest way to play your whole play slip (boards, play types and bets) for up to 28 draws in a row. Just mark your desired number of draws in the Multi-Draw section.
Pay for your tickets before the cut-off time and keep them safe. Each play costs $1, so the total amount depends on how many boards you fill in and the number of consecutive draws.
Two play types are available in Pick 4. Here’s a description of each one:
Exact Order - Also known as a Straight, this type of play requires you to match all three drawn numbers in the correct position.
Any Order - You still need to match all three drawn numbers to win a prize, but the order does not matter. This wager style is also called a Box, and there are two types you can play. A ‘3-Way Box’ has two identical numbers, for example 112, whereas a 6-Way Box has three different numbers (e.g. 123).
No. All prize amounts are fixed. Regardless of your play type, you must always match all three numbers. There are no consolation prizes for getting two out of three.
You must be at least 18 years old to play any lottery game in Kansas.
You must claim any prizes you win within one year of the relevant draw date.
