How to Play Oregon Pick 4 Lottery

From a Oregon Lottery retailer (a gas station, a convenience store, a food store, etc. which plays OR Lottery) get Pick 4 betting slips. Unlike, other states, this betting slip contains a space only for one number selection, but with several playing options.

Each betting slip contains an area where you mark your selected number. This area contains four columns of the digits 0 to 9. Mark the first digit of your number on the first column, the second digit on the second column, the third digit on the third column, and the fourth digit on the fourth column. So, if you want to play 8142, then 8 will be marked in the first column, 1 in the second column, 4 in the third column, and 2 in the fourth column.

Then, there is an area where you choose your play type. The Oregon Pick 4 has seven options and you can select as many as you want. (Pick 4 games of other states will allow only one play type for each number selected). Next to each play type mark the amount you want to wager for that play type (50¢ or $1). Note that the minimum you can play per game slip is $1 per drawing.

Next, present the completed playslip to the lottery retailer to receive your printed ticket. Check your ticket immediately to ensure that the numbers, dates, and play type match your request.
