Dubai: The UAE Lottery, which offers a Dh100 million grand prize and several other cash prizes to UAE residents, has launched yet another daily draw, allowing players to win up to Dh25,000 by spending just Dh5.

The launch of the new draw titled ‘Pick 4’ follows the successful game of Pick 3, a similar daily draw in which players should choose three numbers to win up to Dh2,500.

In Pick 4, players must choose four numbers to win two play types—Exact and Any.

Exact: The numbers you select must match the winning numbers in the exact order that they are drawn.

Any Order: The numbers you select must match the winning numbers drawn in any order.

You can choose your own numbers on a play slip. Pick a four-digit number from 0000 through 9999. Or use Easy Pick and let the computer choose your numbers for you.
