Game Rules

How To Play:

Pick 5 numbers out of 39. Then pick your Hot Ball, 1 out of 19.

Pick your own numbers or let the computer pick them for you by asking for an easy pick.

Purchase up to 10 consecutive drawings at a time.

Drawings held at 9:40 p.m. Wednesdays and Saturdays.

Win the jackpot by matching all 5 white numbers and the Hot Ball. Other prizes also awarded.

Hot Lotto Sizzler:

Ask your retailer for the Hot Lotto Sizzler option every time you play Hot Lotto and you will triple your prize (except the jackpot).

Pay $1 extra per play and your prize, except for the jackpot, will be multiplied by three. A $500 prize would be worth $1,500 and a $10,000 prize would be worth $30,000! The Hot Lotto Sizzler is a permanent addition to the Hot Lotto game.

Prizes & Odds:

Jackpot starts at $1 Million!

* The jackpot prize will be divided equally among multiple winners based on the amount available to the lottery for the jackpot prize pool.

A Note About Jackpots:

You have 60 days to decide whether to collect a jackpot prize with the annuity or cash option. If you select the annuity option and the cost to purchase the annuity is less than $250,000, the lottery may elect to pay that prize as a cash option prize. If you select the cash option, the prize will be a single cash payment equal to the amount available to the lottery for the jackpot prize pool. The cash prize is estimated to be approximately one-half of the estimated annuitized jackpot (the advertised jackpot paid over 25 years), depending on current interest rates.
