Odds in Pick 3 depend on which play type you choose. Straight play (exact order) has odds of 1 in 1,000, while Box play (any order) offers better odds depending on your number combination. Want better odds? Choose Box or Front/Back Pair. Want bigger prizes? Go with Straight or Combo. The beauty of Pick 3 is you control the risk-reward balance.

Pick 3 has 5 main play types: Straight, Box, Front Pair, Back Pair, 1-Off. Each works differently. Straight means exact order, pick 1-2-3, and only 1-2-3 wins. Odds: 1 in 1,000. Box matches any order, 1-2-3 wins as 3-2-1, 2-1-3, etc. Better odds, smaller prize. Combo plays every possible order as separate Straight bets for maximum coverage, higher cost. You can mix multiple play types on one ticket. Many players do a small Box wager plus a larger Straight bet on their favorite number.
