Foreword and Notes

NOT to be used as a basis for making bets or formulating betting strategies; this page is strictly for informational purposes.

Most lotteries cited here are government-controlled by the jurisdictions cited in the heading. Exceptions are noted.

If an operator included here offers Keno, information on that game, if available and included, will be found on the Keno page on this site. Click here for further information.

All payouts based on local currency. U.S. payouts and percentages based on $1.00 bet - exceptions noted. Payouts and percentages of larger jackpots, where not pari-mutuel, are based on the annuity option rather than the cash payout option. The cash payout option will lower payouts and percentages.

Most government-controlled lotteries offer Pick 3 and Pick 4 games, sometimes under different names, but the basic principle remains the same. When a combination bet is permitted (straight/box), the possible payouts of the game have been totaled and the percentage of the payouts adjusted accordingly.
