Section 5011.2 - Payment of prizes and chances of winning for Pick-10

(a) Prizes will be paid for all tickets on which the player selections match the winning numbers drawn for the day or days played. The number of selections that must match the winning numbers drawn, and the prize won is shown in the chart below:

These odds have been rounded to the nearest whole number. For any drawing in which there are more than 10 tickets on which the player selections match 10 winning numbers, the total prize payments available for such winning tickets shall be limited to $5,000,000; and the amount of the prize payable to the holder of each such ticket shall be determined by dividing the sum of $5,000,000 by the number of such tickets.

(b) The holder of a winning ticket may win only one prize per game panel in connection with the winning numbers drawn for a particular Pick-10 game, but shall be entitled to the highest prize won by those numbers.

(c) A Pick-10 reserve will be created using the funds made available as a result of drawings in which the total prizes paid are less than the 40-percent prize pool. This reserve may be used, at the option of the director, to increase any or all prize levels. Such increases may be permanent or for a specific period of time.
