Guess How Many Winners Won A Pick 4 With These Crazy Lottery Numbers
A televised Daily 4 draw for the Michigan Lottery.
When players choose their own numbers, the result is likely to be unoriginal. They often select:
- A birth date
- Licence plate number
- Diagonal lines on a lottery ticket
- The date
- Their children's birthdays
But when players chose the same numbers for the Michigan Lottery's Daily 4, it wasn't a real surprise.
The Lottery had predicted that Nov. 11 could be a big day for Daily 4 players.
Lottery officials expected strong player interest in playing the numbers 1-1-1-1 for both Daily 4 drawings on Tuesday, Nov. 11, or 11-11.

Jeff Holyfield, the director of public relations for the Michigan Lottery, told the Wall Street Journal's Jo Craven McGinty about the number selection coincidence.
Jeff Holyfield“Some folks play the same numbers over and over,” he said. “We had an interesting surprise last year in the Daily 4 game when 1, 1, 1, 1 came up.”
In that game, players choose four numbers and can win up to $5,000.
On a typical day, there are 200 or more winners, Mr. Holyfield said.
But last July, 3,672 people played the winning combination!
“If you’d said, ‘Jeff, how many people play 1, 1, 1, 1?’ I would have said, well, not many,” Mr. Holyfield said.
In this case there was no shared jackpot, and each player received $5,000 for a total payout of $18.36 million.
1-1-1-1 was drawn as the winning Daily 4 number on Tuesday,and marked the second time in 2014 players have cashed in big on the number.
And on July 26, nearly 3,700 Lottery players won $5,000 apiece after the number was drawn. In total, the huge Daily 4 payout amounted to nearly $18.4 million.
