How To Play Grouper In Lotteries?
Grouper is a term given to a collection of few lotteries to play in Florida state lotteries in US. There are two types of Grouper to play here. One is called simply Grouper and the other type of lottery is called Grouper Super Sampler and gives players the chance to win four jackpots, with six total drawings plus the chance to win $500 instantly with EzMatch.
Which lotteries can you play Grouper?
You can play the following three lotteries in Grouper:
- Pick 3
- Florida Lotto with Double Play
- Fantasy 5 with Ez Match
Here all tickets in the GROUPER package play are Quick Pick tickets for the next available drawing. Players cannot select any of their own numbers or add-on features for any game tickets. GROUPER tickets will contain ticket messages to indicate they are part of the GROUPER package play and the free Pick 3 ticket will be marked “FREE.”
Visit any Florida Lottery retailer and ask for GROUPER; the terminal will print three individual Quick Pick tickets.
1. Pick 3
It’s the game where you can play today and get paid today itself. You can win a top prize of $500 with a $1 Straight play, or increase your chances of winning with a Box, Straight/Box, Combo, or Pairs play. There are so many options to try! Simply select your lucky numbers and play it your way any day – twice a day. Midday and evening drawings offer two chances to play – and win!
To play, pick up a PICK 3 playslip at an authorized Florida Lottery retailer or use your Florida Lottery mobile app to create a playslip.
Each playslip contains five panels (A-E). In each panel played:
1. Select one number (from 0 through 9) from each column for a total of three digits, or mark the QP (Quick Pick) box and let the terminal randomly pick some or all of your numbers. For a Front Pair play, select a number from the first two columns only; for a Back Pair play, select a number from the last two columns only.
2. Select the play type: Straight, Box, Straight/Box, Combo, Front Pair, or Back Pair.
3. Select the amount you want to play: $0.50 or $1 (all Straight/Box plays cost $1; Combo plays cost $1.50 to $6.00).
4. Add FIREBALL for more chances to win. Adding FIREBALL doubles the price of your base play ticket and applies to all panels.
5. Select the draw time. Select MID for the midday drawing (1:30 p.m., ET), EVE for the evening drawing (9:45 p.m., ET), or BOTH for both the midday and evening drawings. If no draw time is marked, the terminal will automatically print a ticket for the next available draw. If BOTH is selected, two separate tickets will print – one for the midday drawing and one for the evening drawing.
6. To Advance Play the same numbers and play types up to 14 consecutive days for the selected draw time(s), simply mark the number in the “Days” section on your playslip.
7. Give your completed playslip and payment to the retailer. You will receive a ticket for each set of selected numbers and draw date(s). Please check your ticket(s) before you leave the store. You are responsible for the accuracy of your ticket(s).
Players who match all three of the winning numbers drawn in the official PICK 3™ drawing for the date played can win up to $500, depending on the play type purchased and the amount played. Front Pair or Back Pair players who match two numbers in exact order can win up to $50.
