Pick 3 players get double dose of luck!

Congratulations to our Pick 3 players! They got a double dose of luck during Thursday night’s drawing, because the Red Ball was drawn.

Players won $294,781 in the first draw, and $166,038 in the second draw.

This is the third time this month that the Red Ball’s been drawn. Here’s how much players won the other times it hit.

•    March 8: $160,332 in the first draw, and $722,930 in the second draw
•    March 1: $304,514 in the first draw, and $135,988 in the second draw

Because the Red Ball was drawn, the Double Draw machine has been reset, and Friday’s drawing will have six white balls and one red.

The promotion runs until March 31. You can read more about how it works here: http://ow.ly/CNtZ30iQYch

Good luck!

Yes, I agree with Jermaine, ever since the new ways to win came out on the pick 4, 1 off, sum it up, front/back pairs, it has been much harder to win. I use to win on the pick 4 often, not any more.

I have a ton of scratch offs. Some of which are eligible for the second chance drawings, however, it's so many of them I'll be a skeleton by the time I enter all of them. What should I do with them, can I sell them back to you guys? NC Lottery
Thanks for the offer. But lottery employees can't play the lottery. :) Do you have the N.C. Lottery Official Mobile App? With it, you can scan your tickets in. Check it out here. https://www.nclottery.com/MobileApp

I play eight multidraws for both Power Play and Megaplier. Both ticks cost $120.00 per ticket. When I enter my tickets in Lucke Zone I can only get 100 points for each. With any other ticket entered you at least get the full ticket cost value or additional Lucke Reward points. The same is true when I enter a $80.00 multidraw ticket. Why doesn't your program reward and not punish $120.00 multidraw players? NC Lottery
The lottery’s Lucke-Rewards point system introduces an element of luck into the rewarding of points with draw tickets. We hope that makes it more fun and interesting. While it is possible to buy $120 in Powerball and Mega Millions tickets and get 100 points, it is also possible to get up to 500 points. Reward Points for instant tickets work differently. There is a minimum 1:1 value (a $5 ticket will always earn at least 5 points). The lottery created Lucke-Rewards as an extension of play provided for added value for your original purchase.

Isn't it becomming kinda obvious to you folk after two weeks of your current Red Ball promotion that the RED Ball might actually be slightly heavier than the white balls...it seems to be the last one drawn and reminds me of the PA lottery rigging. NC Lottery
All ball sets are weighed before use in live drawings. The red ball sets most recent certification at the Standards Lab was on 2/26/2018. It's just one of the many steps the lottery takes to make sure drawings are conducted fairly. Our drawings are also open to the public if you would like to attend and witness one. Good luck if you decide to try a Double Draw Pick 3 drawing.
