Overall odds of winning and prizes are determined by the number and type of bet selected for each draw.
The Lucky One is a set payout game which pays prizes based on a one-dollar ($1) bet shall be as follows:
Wager Types | Selections | How to Win | Example Player Selects | Example Number Drawn | $1 Bet Pays | Odds of Winning |
Lucky Number | Any number from 1-36 | Player must match number drawn | Player selects the number 2 | 2 | $24 | 1:36 |
Odd/Even | Odd or Even | Player must match if the number drawn is odd or even | Player selects odd | 1 | $1.50 | 1:2 |
High/Low | High or Low | Player must match if the number drawn is high or low | Player selects high | 30 | $1.50 | 1:2 |
The Lucky One shall have a two million dollar ($2,000,000) prize liability limit paid out in any single draw.
In the event of multiple winners in a single drawing, in which the total payout for that drawing would exceed two million dollars ($2,000,000), each ticket would be awarded a proportional share of the two million dollar ($2,000,000) jackpot prize cap by dividing each ticket's winning jackpot prize total by the total of all winning prizes to determine each ticket's proportional share of the two million dollar ($2,000,000) prize cap.
The Executive Director may adopt other prize structures that shall be effective upon the issuance of instructions to the public.
If a player validates a winning The Lucky One Ticket and a portion of The Lucky One Ticket has draw(s) remaining, The Lucky One Exchange Ticket will be reissued to the player at no additional cost. The Lucky One Exchange Ticket shall contain the exact The Lucky One game play and future drawing date(s) appearing on the validated The Lucky One Ticket it is replacing and shall have all other characteristics of The Lucky One Ticket except as otherwise stated in these rules. The Lucky One Exchange Ticket shall not contain a ticket price.
The Lucky One Exchange Ticket is valid beginning with the next draw through the last draw on the original The Lucky One Ticket.
