Interesting Facts
Pick 3 and Pick 4 have liability limits to maintain fairness. When a particular combination of numbers reaches a specific sales limit, you may no longer be able to purchase those numbers.
Liability limits are reached when a large number of people have chosen a certain number combination. For example the Pick 4 combination 2-0-0-0, which was popular on Jan. 1, 2000, to mark the new millennium.
These limits, set at $1.5 million each for Pick 3 and Pick 4, ensure that the Lottery can fulfill its payout obligations and are standard in games with fixed payouts across the industry.
