How to Play Play4

$0.50Daily4 × [0–9] + 1 × [0–9]

Overview

Play4 is Connecticut’s four-digit numbers game. Choose four digits from 0–9, a play type and a wager from 50¢ to $5. A $1 Straight pays $5,000 (1 in 10,000). Drawings are twice a day: Day at 1:57 p.m. ET and Night at 10:29 p.m. ET.

How to play — step by step

  1. 1. Select 4 numbers

    Choose 4 numbers from 0 to 9, or mark Quick Pick and let the terminal choose.

  2. 2. Select 1 bonus number

    Choose 1 bonus number from 0 to 9. This ball is drawn separately from the main numbers.

  3. 3. Choose your play type

    Straight (exact order), Box (any order), Straight/Box (half of each, in even dollar amounts), a Front, Split or Back Pair, or Combo, which covers every order of your digits.

  4. 4. Add Wild Ball (optional)

    Wild Ball doubles the cost of the ticket. After each drawing a Wild Ball digit is drawn and can replace one of the winning digits, creating more winning combinations.

  5. 5. 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.
