Playing for 50 cents is the way I go as well. Payouts of $600 or more you have to go to the lottery office and file paperwork, taxes, etc. This big payout is for a dollar straight. As I have mentioned before, there is only ONE straight number that has not hit in the history of the midday game here in MO.
A $1 box for doubles pays $200. Front pair or back pair pays $60.
I did have a big hit in the Illinois Pick 3 game several years ago. It had been at least 2000 draws since a triple had hit in the Pick 3. I played 555 for three days and won big when it hit.
Your thoughts on playing have me intrigued with the Pick 3 again.
