History and Overview

Pick 6 is one of the flagship games of the New Jersey Lottery, offering players the chance to win substantial prizes with a simple, traditional lottery format. Launched in 1980, Pick 6 has long been a favorite among New Jersey players due to its straightforward playstyle and the potential for life-changing jackpots. The game features a rolling jackpot that starts at a minimum of $2 million and grows with each rollover until there is a winner.

How to Play

1. Choose Your Numbers:

Players select 6 numbers from a pool of 1 to 46.
You can either pick your own numbers or opt for a Quick Pick, where the lottery terminal randomly selects numbers for you.

2. Wager Amount:

A single Pick 6 play costs $2.
For an additional $1, players can activate the XTRA feature, which multiplies non-jackpot prizes by a factor of up to 5, adding even more value to your play.

3. XTRA Feature (Optional):

By paying an extra $1 per ticket, players can activate the XTRA multiplier, which boosts non-jackpot winnings.
During the draw, an XTRA multiplier (2x, 3x, 4x, or 5x) is randomly selected. If your ticket wins a non-jackpot prize, that prize is multiplied by the drawn XTRA value.

4. Multi-Draw Option:

Players can choose to enter their numbers for up to 26 consecutive draws by marking the Multi-Draw option on the playslip. This allows you to automatically participate in multiple future draws with the same numbers.
