Less than Three Selections

If you complete less than three selections per play, your $2 play will be completed with Quick Pick selections. If you indicate on the selection slip that you want two plays (six selections), yet you only complete four selections, the lottery terminal will automatically generate two Quick Picks for a total of six selections.

Draws are held every Friday.

How to Win

Sales are cut off at 6 p.m. Pacific time on Fridays. Seven numbers plus a Bonus number are drawn every Friday.

The Bonus number is the eighth number drawn. If a Lotto Super 7 ticket matches six numbers on one line plus the Bonus number, or three numbers on one line plus the Bonus number, that ticket would be a winner in the 6/7+ or 3/7+ categories. The Bonus number does not apply to any other prize category.

Play a Combo

Combo Play is a convenient way of playing multiple selections for Lotto Super 7 without having to complete multiple selection slips. You can choose either a 6, 8 or 9-number Combo. See Combo Play Prizes.

When you choose a Combo 6, you pick six numbers, and every other number from 1 - 47 is added to create 41 seven-number selections. This is done three times to create 123 seven-number selections. If you complete less than three selections, your play will be completed with Quick Pick selections.

When you choose a Combo 8 or 9, the selected numbers are mixed together into every possible selection of seven numbers. Here's an example of the 24 selections created when you choose the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 as the first selection; the numbers 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17 and 18 as the second selection; and the numbers 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27 and 28 as the third selection on a Combo 8.

Combo 9 is created in the same way, except you pick nine numbers. Although Combo Play tickets only show the numbers you selected, all possible seven-number selections are stored in the computer system's memory.

You can select your own numbers or ask for a Quick Pic, Advance Buy is available and you can add up to 10 selections of Extra numbers for each Combo Play ticket that you buy.
