- Straight
- Match all 4 digits in the exact order drawn.
- Box
- Match all 4 digits in any order. How many orders your number has sets the prize: 1333 is 4-way, 1133 is 6-way, 1233 is 12-way and 1234 is 24-way.
- 2-Way
- Michigan calls it 2-Way: a $1 bet split into a 50¢ Straight and a 50¢ Box on the same number. The exact order wins both prizes, and any other order wins the Box prize.
- Wheel
- Michigan calls it a Wheel: a $1 Straight on every order of your digits, so a 4-way Wheel costs $4 and a 24-way Wheel $24. Whichever order is drawn wins one Straight prize.
- 1-Off
- Match all 4 digits in exact order for the 1-Off Straight prize, or win the smaller 1-Off prize when the other digits match in place and one is one up or one down: a bet on 1234 also wins on 1235, 1233, 1244, 1224, 1134, 1334, 2234 and 0234.
