## Winning Criteria

The numbers on your ticket must match in the correct order to win, from left to right.

Here’s an example, with two tickets, A and B.

<figure><img src="/files/RInYM5YhdX77o8J368eI" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

* **Ticket A:** The first 3 numbers and the last 2 numbers match, but the 4th number is wrong, so this ticket only wins a “Match first 3 numbers” prize.
* **Ticket B:** Even though the last 5 numbers match, the first number is wrong, so this ticket doesn’t win a prize.

\*Prize pots don’t ‘stack’: if you match the first 3 digits in order, you’ll only win from the "Match first 3 numbers" prize pot, and not from "Match first 1 number" and "Match first 2 numbers" ones.

## Prize Funds
