Lottery Adds New Game To Midday, Evening Drawings
PITTSBURGH (KDKA) ―
Pennsylvania Lottery players have a new way of winning.
A new game has been added to the midday and evening drawings.
Quinto is a numbers game that's similar to the Daily Number and Big Four and winners can pocket a top prize of up to $50,000.
Even though most people hadn't even heard of the game, Quinto tickets were selling well.
Quinto gives you several ways to win: five numbers in sequence, five numbers boxed and more.
"The beauty of this game is either you got the last two numbers, you got money," says Peter Bhatt, a lottery retailer, "or the first two numbers you got the money. First three you got the money - last three."
You get the idea. Quinto prizes range from $50 to $50,000.
But the addition of Quinto means the live lottery broadcast will have a new look.
In order to squeeze in the Quinto game during the 90-second drawing, they'll have to speed up the drawings. Numbers will now be drawn all at once instead of one at a time.
Watch the live lottery drawing everyday at 7 p.m. on KDKA-TV.
