Colorado (CO) Pick 3 Midday Lotto Game
History and Overview
Colorado Pick 3 is a fast-paced daily lottery game offering players multiple ways to win by choosing a combination of three digits. It was first introduced by the Colorado Lottery in 2013 and has since become popular for its flexibility and frequent draws. The game allows players to customize their play style and prize potential, with draws happening twice a day – Midday and Evening – giving participants double the chances to win. In this guide, we’ll focus on the Pick 3 Midday game.
How to Play
Playing Colorado Pick 3 is simple, and players have various ways to tailor their gameplay. Here’s how it works:
Choose Your Numbers:
- Players select three numbers from 0 to 9. Each number is selected individually, giving the potential for repeated digits.
Play Styles:
