Play Texas Pick 4 in multiple ways by choosing a specific play style. There are five to choose from - each changing how the game is played. Read up on each Play Type below.
Match all four numbers in the exact order they are drawn and you will win the top prize.
In Box you can match winning numbers in any order. There are different ways to play Box - read all of these under the 'Ways to Match Numbers' section.
Play Straight and Box at the same time! Split a $1 wager on both - $0.50 on each play. Picking this option means if you win the straight prize, you'll simultaneously win the box prize.
Play every single combination of numbers on a Straight Play type. This will significantly boost your chances of winning the top prize.
If you choose Pair play you only have to pick two numbers to start playing. There are three possible combinations: Front Pair (match the first two numbers in exact order), Mid Pair (match the second and third number in exact order) and Back Pair (match the last two numbers in exact order).
For Box, Straight/Box, and Combination plays you choose four different ways to match numbers: 4-way, 6-way, 12-way and 24-way - named after the number of winning combinations there are.
