New Hampshire Lottery Draw Games
The New Hampshire Lottery was the first modern state lottery in the United States, established in 1964. It offers seven draw games ranging from daily digit picks to multi-state mega-jackpots. Revenue supports education funding across the Granite State. New Hampshire has no state income tax, which means lottery winnings are tax-free at the state level — one of the best states in the country for lottery winners.
Pick 3 (3 digits, 0-9)
Pick 3 is New Hampshire's classic daily digit game. Choose three digits from 0 to 9 with Midday draws at approximately 1:10 PM ET and Evening draws at 6:55 PM ET, seven days a week. Play types include Straight, Box, Straight/Box, Front Pair, and Back Pair. As a Tri-State game shared with Maine and Vermont, the draws are conducted by the Tri-State Lottery Commission.
Pick 4 (4 digits, 0-9)
Pick 4 extends the digit game format to four numbers. Choose four digits from 0 to 9 with Midday draws at approximately 1:10 PM ET and Evening draws at 6:55 PM ET, seven days a week. Like Pick 3, this is a Tri-State game shared with Maine and Vermont with additional box combinations due to the fourth digit.
Gimme 5 (5/39)
Gimme 5 is the Tri-State region's own 5-number game, shared with Maine and Vermont. Pick 5 numbers from 1 to 39, drawn Monday through Friday evenings at approximately 6:55 PM ET. The top prize is $100,000 for matching all 5 numbers, with odds of approximately 1 in 575,757 — far more favorable than multi-state games. Four prize tiers from $1 (match 2) up to the $100,000 top prize.
Megabucks Plus (5/41 + Megaball 1/6)
Megabucks Plus is the flagship Tri-State jackpot game, shared with Maine and Vermont. Pick 5 numbers from 1 to 41 plus a Megaball from 1 to 6, drawn Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday evenings at approximately 7:59 PM ET. The rolling jackpot starts at $1 million and grows until won. With jackpot odds of approximately 1 in 4,496,388, Megabucks Plus offers much better odds than Powerball or Mega Millions — making it the best-value jackpot game in the region.
Millionaire For Life (5/58 + Millionaire Ball 1/5)
Millionaire For Life offers life-changing recurring payouts. Pick 5 numbers from 1 to 58 plus a Millionaire Ball from 1 to 5, drawn daily at approximately 11:15 PM ET. The top prize is $18 million paid for life, with a second-tier prize of $100,000 per year for life. Nine prize tiers make this a compelling game for players seeking sustained income.
Powerball (5/69 + 1/26)
Powerball draws Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday evenings. Pick 5 numbers from 1 to 69 plus a Powerball from 1 to 26. The Power Play multiplier can boost non-jackpot prizes up to 10x for an extra $1. Jackpot odds are 1 in 292,201,338.
Mega Millions (5/70 + 1/24)
Mega Millions draws Tuesday and Friday evenings. Pick 5 numbers from 1 to 70 plus a Mega Ball from 1 to 24. Every Mega Millions ticket now includes a built-in random multiplier of 2x to 10x that boosts non-jackpot prizes at no extra cost. Jackpot odds are 1 in 290,472,336.
Which New Hampshire Game Should You Play?
For daily digit action, Pick 3 and Pick 4 draw twice a day. For a regional jackpot with great odds, Megabucks Plus at 1 in 4.5 million is the best bet. Gimme 5 offers even better odds for a fixed $100K top prize. For life-changing recurring payouts, Millionaire For Life offers $18M for life at the top tier. For the biggest single jackpots, Powerball and Mega Millions deliver — and with no state income tax, NH winners keep more than almost any other state.
