How to play 2By2

Just like any multi-number game, 2By2 is a very easy game to play. The 2By2 play slip contains five play areas each for a separate independent game. Each panel contains two sets of numbers for the Red and White numbers.

Select 2 numbers from 1 through 26 on the Red ball section and 2 numbers from 1 through 26 on the White ball section. Alternatively, you can mark the Quick Pick (QP) (Easy Pick (EP) in some states) to let the Lottery terminal randomly select your numbers for you. If you want to play more games, then fill out panels B, C, etc. Each one costs $1.

If you make an error, DO NOT ERASE, instead mark the Void box for that play.

A typical winning number is reported as,
10-16**01-25 , where the first two are the Red and the last two the Whihe numbers
Since the order in which the numbers are drawn doesn't matter within each set, the winning numbers are reported in their natural order from smallest to highest.
