New Jersey Pick 3 Prizes
In New Jersey Pick 3, you either win the prize for your play type, or you lose, so there are no runner-up prizes (unless you count Fireball matches as runners-up!). Having said that, the odds of winning a prize in Pick 3 are much better than the majority of other lotteries, so it's all to play for.
