Wild Ball Add-On Feature

Wild Ball creates additional winning combinations for Cash 4 similar to Cash 3.

How Wild Ball Works:

• Add Wild Ball for double the base cost
• After every Cash 4 drawing, a one-digit Wild Ball number (0-9) is drawn
• Wild Ball can replace any one of the four winning digits to create an additional winning combination
• Win Wild Ball prizes in addition to base game prizes

Wild Ball Prize Example (based on $1.00 base wager = $2.00 total with Wild Ball):

• Exact Order with Wild Ball: If you match exactly using Wild Ball substitution, win an additional $1,350
  • Total if you match both base and Wild Ball: $5,000 (base Exact) + $1,350 (Wild Ball Exact) = $6,350

Wild Ball Cost:

• $0.50 base wager becomes $1.00 total
• $1.00 base wager becomes $2.00 total
