2by2 Lottery Guide

2by2 is a multistate draw game currently offered in Kansas, Nebraska, North Dakota and Wyoming.

How 2by2 works

A play costs $1. Players choose two red numbers from 1 through 26 and two white numbers from a separate 1 through 26 field.

Drawings take place nightly.

The standard top prize is $22,000. Under the game's Tuesday promotion, qualifying plays purchased in the required seven draw increment can receive doubled prizes for the Tuesday drawing, including a $44,000 top prize.

Where the game is sold

2by2 is offered by four participating lotteries:

Kansas
Nebraska
North Dakota
Wyoming

Purchase methods, sales cutoffs, age requirements, claim deadlines and any online options are controlled by the individual state lottery.

Four participating lotteries

2by2 is sometimes described as being played in five states. That is outdated: it is offered by the four lotteries listed above, and purchase and claim rules are not identical in every state.

Random selection

Players can use the number selection options provided by the selling lottery. Choosing numbers manually does not create better mathematical odds than a valid random selection.

Previous 2by2 results also do not make particular numbers more likely in the next independent drawing.

Before buying

Use the official participating lottery for the current draw deadline, prize chart, claim period and purchasing rules in your state. Third party websites should not be treated as the source of record for a ticket issued by a state lottery.
