HOW TO PLAY

Step 1: Find

Find a Daily 3 retailer close to home, work or your favorite coffee shop. With more than 21,000 California Lottery retail locations, a place to play is never too far away.

Step 2: Pick

Pick three lucky numbers from 0 to 9, marking one number per row on a Daily 3 playslip. Or, play randomly generated numbers with Quick Pick®.

Next pick your playstyle: Straight, Box or Straight/Box.

Then pick your draw: Midday, Evening or both.

One playslip can hold up to five plays using your lucky numbers and you may play as many playslips as you like.

To play the same numbers and playstyle for consecutive draws, just mark Advance Play®.

Playstyle

Daily 3 has three different playstyles:

Straight - Your numbers must match the winning numbers in exactly the same order.

Box - Your numbers must match the winning numbers in ANY order.

Straight/Box - This is a combination of both the Straight and Box playstyles and your $1 play is split evenly between the two ways of winning. If you match the winning numbers in exact order, you win approximately half the Straight prize plus approximately half the Box prize. If you match the winning numbers in any other order, you win approximately half the Box prize only.

Advance Play

Advance Play allows you to play multiple draws with one purchase.

You can play the same numbers and playstyle for 1-7 or 14 consecutive draws on one playslip by marking the Advance Play box.

Because Daily 3 has two draws per day, playing 14 consecutive draws will result in 7 days of play.

Note: Make sure to mark your numbers with either blue or black ink. And if you make a mistake, don’t erase. Just mark the VOID box.

Player’s Strategies

A shared prize pool means that less-played numbers have a better chance at bigger prizes. For this reason, some players try to select less-played numbers with the hopes to split the prize pool with fewer people.  

Remember, to win Daily 3 all of your numbers must match all of the winning numbers. Each number is independent of the other two numbers. That means, if the winning numbers are 3-3-1, you must have a three, another three, and a one in your chosen numbers to win.
