How to Play Pick 3

$0.50Daily3 × [0–9]

Overview

Pick 3 is Colorado’s three-digit numbers game. Choose three digits from 0–9 (repeats allowed) and a bet type — Exact Order, Any Order, Exact + Any Order, Front Pair, or Back Pair — for 50¢, $1, $2, or $5. A $1 Exact Order pays $500 (1 in 1,000), and a $5 bet pays up to $2,500. Drawings are twice a day, every day: Midday around 1:30 p.m. and Evening around 7:30 p.m. MT.

How to play — step by step

  1. 1. Select 3 numbers

    Choose 3 numbers from 0 to 9, or mark Quick Pick and let the terminal choose.

  2. 2. Choose your bet type

    Exact Order must match in the exact order drawn. Any Order wins in any order and pays more when two of your digits are the same. Exact + Any Order is always a $1 bet split 50¢ / 50¢. Front Pair or Back Pair matches the first or last two digits in order.

  3. 3. Choose your drawing

    Play Midday, Evening, or both. Play up to 28 days of just one drawing, or up to 56 drawings if you play both.

  4. 4. Choose how many drawings

    Pay $0.50 per play (add-ons cost extra). Tell the retailer how many consecutive drawings you want, or mark Advance Play on the slip.

Responsible play tips

  • Exact Order odds are 1 in 1,000 on every three-digit combination.
  • Prizes scale with your bet: 50¢ pays half of the $1 prize, $2 pays double, and $5 pays five times as much.
  • Any Order with two of the same digit (like 566) pays twice the 6-way prize but has half the winning combinations.
