How To Play
The Pick ™ is Arizona's own jackpot game with jackpots starting at $1 million and growing until someone wins. The Pick has four ways to win. Match all 6 numbers to win the jackpot. The Pick drawings are held every Wednesday and Saturday evening.

You can buy your tickets for The Pick between 4 a.m. and midnight. On Wednesday and Saturday, sales stop at 9:30 p.m. and may resume for the next drawing at participating retailers from 9:35 p.m. until midnight.

Drawing game tickets cannot be voided. All sales are final. Drawing prizes must be claimed within 180 days of the drawing.

How to Play

The Pick™ is Arizona's own jackpot game with jackpots starting at $1 million and growing until someone wins. You have two ways to pick your numbers.

  • Choose Quick Pick and let the computer select your numbers for you.
  • Choose your own numbers and mark them on the selection slip. Pick six numbers (1 through 44).

You can play The Pick for up to 10 consecutive drawing dates on the same ticket. Just tell the retailer at the time of purchase or mark the Number of Draws box on your selection slip.

How to Win

With four ways to win, match (in any order) three, four, five or all six of the first six numbers drawn.

Payment Options – If you win the jackpot, you have 60 days to choose either a 30-year annuity or a lump-sum cash payment of approximately half the amount of the announced jackpot. If you do not select cash or annuity within the 60 days, your prize will be paid as an annuity.

Overall odds of winning a cash prize are approximately 1 in 39.

* If other players also match all six of the numbers, you'll share the prize pool with them in equal amounts.

The Pick with EXTRA – Choose The Pick EXTRA option for chances to win cash instantly. For just a dollar more, EXTRA gives you 6 extra numbers on your ticket. If any match your ticket numbers, you win $1, $2, $5, $10, $25, $50 or $250 instantly.

When buying The Pick ticket, check the EXTRA selection box or tell the retailer that you want to purchase the EXTRA option. When playing more than one board, specify how many EXTRA options you wish to play.
