California Daily 4

If anyone has noticed...the Calottery website has finally posted the start of the Daily 4 game. I was hoping the game would be similar to the Decco game they had many years ago, but no luck there. The Daily 4 will play like the Daily 3. When I played the Decco game I missed out on $5K a number of times. The numbers I played on a Tuesday would hit on a Thursday which would be the day I worked late and wasn't able to buy my tickets. That was my luck. I think I may have to buy my tickets for the week in advance. I'll give that a try...

hiya Mr_Rich, thanks for the tip.

Ashame that California Lottery did not do their homework.

California Lottery snatched the pick4 game, and instead of being creative, they snipped the balls off :dog: the game.

no 50cent bet, prizes for front3 or back3 digits, pair, or consolation prize of $1 for getting 1digit by position or whatever. throw a dog a bone...games are supposed to be fun, keep 'em comin back for more.

I just checked these states at random, and they all offer 50cent bets: FL, OR, WA, NJ, NY, WV. Even the crooks in DC offer 50cent bets:rolling:

Most people in California don't even know of the Daily3 game. When I was in NY & NJ, I was suprised to actually see them advertise their pick3 games on TV.

hey Mr_Rich, have you givin any thought yet how you will play CA Daily4 when it first starts?

I guess I'll just box-wheel some favorite digits and hope for the best:rolling:

here is my pick4 webpage:

Hi,

I was thinking of playing one of the sets that jinxed me many years ago. It will be interesting to see the payouts... Most of my hits with Daily 3 were straight/box hits. I'm starting to play box lately.

I still have some 5 1/4" disks with the Decco game on them. There may be a bit of a challenge to recover those files. :) That game was positional since the only option was straight play. Boxed choices weren't an option.

6698.

hiya Rich,

yup, I'm curious about how the Daily4 pari-mutuel payouts.

I usually bet "straight/box" when there are just a few probable combo variations of the digits in the pick....otherwise if all combos are probable then I'll just shoot for the box bet.

5 1/4" disks...funny, I remember hole-punchin those to save data on the back:rolling:

Thats good Blitzed, I remember when I was living in California(San Diego) as you know Calif didn't have daily4 games then . The only thing close to that was fantasy 5, which I won 4 numbers I will always remember that. My favorite numbers I like to play here in Ohio for pick 4 our. 2341 6789 7890 1115 5647 5432 3117 9637. *1948*
The numbers in red are good numbers to play.

hiya rally, that is great! yup, 50cent plays sounds cool to me! I wish California lottery would take a hint and add 50cent bets to the new daily4 game...especially bein in a recession and all duh!

cool, I'm just north of del mar...only time I'm down there is when my friend takes his dog down to the beach. I wanted to head down to the beach after work, but got too many things to do today bleh!

take it easy!
