COLUMBIA, SC (November 3, 2020) – On Election Day, thousands of Pick 3 players in South Carolina are cheering triple 9s.

Depending on the price paid for the ticket, winners that played 9 – 9 – 9 took home either $250 or $500 per play. The odds of winning are 1 in 1,000.

The total Pick 3 prize payout eclipsed $2.5 million for Tuesday’s midday draw with 10,310 total winning plays purchased.

The triple number combination is hands down the Lottery’s most played sequence, with this drawing producing 16 times the number of winners compared to the previous day’s draw.

This marks the tenth time 9 – 9 – 9 has been drawn by the Lottery. The last time 9 – 9 – 9 was seen was back in December of last year.

Winning Pick 3 tickets worth up to $500 can be cashed at lottery retailers statewide.

Players have 180 days from the date of the drawing in which to claim their prizes.

Winners should always sign the back of their ticket first to safeguard their prize.
