Daily 4 from the Texas Lottery is an exciting daily game that lets you play your lucky numbers and gives you the option to choose your play style. If you're feeling lucky, head over to your nearest Texas Lottery retailer and ask for a Daily 4 Quick Pick, or grab a play slip if you'd like to play your own numbers.
To play, simply pick four numbers from 0 to 9, or let the terminal choose for you with QuickPick. Now that you have your numbers, it's time to choose how you want to play. There are five play types to choose from: Straight, Box, Straight/Box, Combo and Pair Play.
Once you've chosen how to play your numbers, select your wager amount, ranging from 50 cents to $5 per play. The amount you win depends on your playstyle and wager amount. There are many different ways to play and win, so be sure to check out texaslottery.com for detailed prize information.

If you want to keep playing, choose multi-draw to play your numbers for up to 24 consecutive drawings, or for a particular drawing time, like the next 12 day drawings only.
It's easy to find out if you're a winner.

On September 30, 2007, the Texas Lottery Commission introduced the Daily 4 with Sum It Up! The twice-daily drawings began on October 1st, offering players new ways to play and more chances to win based on the four numbers drawn. Just a day later, on September 9, 2007, the Commission started sales for All or Nothing, which features the best overall odds of any Texas draw game and 10 ways to win a prize.
In 2013, Pick 3 and Daily 4 drawings increased to four times a day. On October 3, 2018, the Commission made changes to Pick 3 and Daily 4 by unanimously voting to adopt proposed rule amendments. The Sum It Up add-on feature was ended and replaced with the new FIREBALL® feature. This allowed players who purchased either the Pick 3 plus FIREBALL or the Daily 4 plus FIREBALL to use an extra number, randomly drawn after each of the Pick 3 and Daily 4 base game drawings, and increase their chances of winning a prize. The changes were planned to take effect in the spring of 2019. Finally, on April 29, 2019, FIREBALL was officially launched as a new add-on feature for Pick 3 and Daily 4, replacing Sum It Up. This gave players even more opportunities to create winning combinations and increase their chances of winning a prize.
