How to play All or Nothing

If you haven't heard of All or Nothing, it might be because you aren't from that state. This draw game is offered only in Wisconsin. You can purchase tickets for $2 per play, and your odds of winning the $100,000 top prize are 1 in 705,432.

All or Nothing drawings take place twice a day, seven days a week. The midday draw takes place at 1:30 p.m. CT, and the evening draw takes place at 9:00 p.m. CT.

To play this draw game, players need to pick 11 numbers from 1 to 22. If you don't want to select your own numbers and you'd prefer to have the computer generate your numbers for you, just ask the lottery retailer for a Quick Pick.

Once you have the numbers selected, you need to choose what drawing you want to enter — midday, evening, or both — and how many days you want to play those numbers for.

There are eight different prize categories for All or Nothing:

  • Match 3 or 8 numbers - Player wins $4
  • Match 2 or 9 numbers - Player wins $40
  • Match 1 or 10 numbers - Player wins $500
  • Match 0 or 11 numbers - Player wins the top prize of $100,000.

The top prize of $100,000 can vary, depending on the number of people that win the top prize in a drawing. If there are 20 or fewer top prize winners, then each winner gets $100,000. However, if there are more than 20 winning tickets in one draw, then the winners will split the $2 million prize pool equally.

Of course, the top prize is won by matching either none of the numbers or all of the numbers. Hence, the name of the game is called All or Nothing.

Enjoy playing the Wisconsin Lottery, and please remember to play responsibly.
