“With this new wager, Pick 3 players now have 27 chances to win with a single ticket, and Pick 4 players have 81 chances to win,” said Tom Delacenserie, president and CEO of the Kentucky Lottery. “These daily games have been popular ever since they were introduced in the Commonwealth, and these new features are definitely going to create more winners – which in turn will create more excitement.”
The Kentucky Lottery is Latest Lottery to Add 1-OFF® to its Daily Games
Pick 3 and Pick 4 players now have more chances to win with new play type even if their numbers don’t exactly match the drawn numbers
The Kentucky Lottery introduced the 1-OFF® play type to both its daily games, Pick 3 and Pick 4 on July 30, 2018. A player can select the 1-OFF® feature at the time of purchase. If one or more of their numbers are – as the name implies – one digit off of winning numbers, they win a cash prize. All the possible numeric combinations with which they can win are on the ticket.
“With this new wager, Pick 3 players now have 27 chances to win with a single ticket, and Pick 4 players have 81 chances to win,” said Tom Delacenserie, president and CEO of the Kentucky Lottery. “These daily games have been popular ever since they were introduced in the Commonwealth, and these new features are definitely going to create more winners – which in turn will create more excitement.”
1-OFF® is a product created and designed by Arizona Gaming Designs, LLC. Ron Borruso, president of Arizona Gaming Designs (AGD), commented, “We continue to believe in our philosophy of developing entertaining games for the lottery industry, which provide frequent winning experiences for players and increase sales for the public good. We are honored to launch 1-OFF® in Kentucky and look forward to continuing our partnership with the Kentucky Lottery in the future.”
The 1-OFF play type has repeatedly produced increases in overall daily game sales without requiring a lottery to launch a separate, brand new on-line game. As a simple play style, 1-OFF is easy to add to any lottery’s daily games. There are several options available that can be specifically tailored for maximum player and retailer excitement. Unlike periodic promotions that only increase sales during the promo period, 1-OFF can help boost daily game sales all year long, with minimal cannibalization that doesn’t depend on increasing payout percentage to increase sales. That translates into more profits for good causes.
1-OFF is now available to lottery players in Kentucky, Florida, Missouri, Michigan, Georgia, Indiana and North Carolina.
