(h) Daily 4 plus FIREBALL.
(1) Daily 4 plus FIREBALL is an add-on feature to the
Daily 4 base game. Adding the Daily 4 plus FIREBALL option doubles
the cost of the wager and creates more possible winning combinations.
For instance, if a player purchases a Daily 4 play with a straight
order play type for $1.00, the Daily 4 plus FIREBALL play will cost
an additional $1.00. If a player purchases a Daily 4 "6-way combo"
for $6, the Daily 4 plus FIREBALL play option will cost an additional
$6. The Daily 4 FIREBALL number will be randomly drawn from a set
of 10 numbers from 0 to 9. The Daily 4 FIREBALL number drawn will
apply exclusively to the Daily 4 base game drawing and prizes. The
Daily 4 plus FIREBALL option cannot be purchased independently of
a Daily 4 play.
(2) The Daily 4 FIREBALL number is used to replace
any one of the four drawn Daily 4 winning numbers to create FIREBALL
prize winning combinations.
(3) If the player's selected numbers match any of the
FIREBALL prize winning combinations, the Daily 4 plus FIREBALL play
wins in accordance with the charts in Figures 401.316(g)(4) through
401.316(g)(14).
(4) All FIREBALL prizes are in addition to any Daily
4 base game wins. Specifically, if a player purchases the Daily 4
plus FIREBALL option, then if the Daily 4 FIREBALL number is the same
as one of the four numbers drawn in the Daily 4 base game drawing,
and the player's numbers already match the numbers drawn for the player's
play type, the player will be awarded the FIREBALL prize, in addition
to the Daily 4 prize as identified in subsection (g) of this section
(relating to the Daily 4 prize charts). For instance, assume a player
selects 1, 2, 3, and 4 in a straight play order for the base game
at $1.00 and purchases a Daily 4 plus FIREBALL play for an additional
$1.00 (total $2.00 wager). If the numbers drawn are 1, 2, 3, and 4
and the Daily 4 FIREBALL number is 4, the play will win the base game
prize of $5000 and the FIREBALL prize of $1350, for a total of $6350.
