How To Play Lotto Texas ^®

Get a Lotto Texas playslip and select six (6) numbers from 1 to 54 in the play area of the playboard or mark the "QP" box and the terminal will select your six (6) numbers. OR, simply ask your lottery retailer for a "Quick Pick" and the terminal will pick all your numbers!

Don't Miss A Drawing! Play Multi-Draw!

For added convenience, you can play Lotto Texas up to 10 drawings in advance. Mark the appropriate box under "Multi-Draw." This will play your numbers indicated on playboards "A" through "E" for the number of drawings you select. Each playboard costs $1 per drawing.

Choose How You Get Paid!

When you buy your Lotto Texas ticket, you must select how you want to be paid if you win the jackpot prize. Mark the "25 Annual Payments" box if you want to receive your prize in 25 annual installments. Mark the "Cash Value Option" box if you want to receive a single payment of the present cash value of the jackpot prize. If you make no selection, the "25 Annual Payments" option will apply to your ticket. You may not later change the payment option.
