Lotto.com Becomes the First Online Lottery Courier To Offer All Bet Types for Pick 3 and Pick 4 Lottery Games
Reinforces its position as the most accessible and convenient lottery platform
JERSEY CITY, N.J., Oct. 26, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The incredibly popular Pick 3 and Pick 4 New Jersey Lottery games are now available to play on Lotto.com Inc., the first digital platform for buying lottery tickets on any device, with no app download or deposit required.
Lotto.com is the only lottery courier to offer players the opportunity to play Pick 3 and Pick 4 every way across all five bet types: straight, box, straight/box, wheel, and pair bets, further highlighting the accessible and innovative nature of Lotto.com’s offering.
Pick 3 and Pick 4 are two of the oldest games in the New Jersey Lottery, with Pick 3 (originally named Pick-It) being introduced by the New Jersey Lottery in 1975 as the first draw-based Lottery game in the U.S., followed shortly thereafter by Pick 4. Both games have continued to evolve with the FIREBALL number being added to both games in 2017, providing players with additional ways to win. Pick 3 and Pick 4 are the top two performing lottery games in the state of New Jersey, accounting for over 50% of all NJ Lottery draw based game sales (source: New Jersey Lottery 2020 Annual Report).
Players participating in Pick 3 or Pick 4 on Lotto.com are able to play in both the midday and evening draws for both games, and can start with a minimum $1 wager with the option to add $1 increments until the maximum wager of $5 is reached. Additionally, Lotto.com will offer the full functionality of the FIREBALL feature on both games, which doubles the cost of the wager, and increases the player’s chance of winning by allowing the lottery drawn Pick 3 and Pick 4 winning numbers to be replaced with the FIREBALL number.
“We’re thrilled to add both Pick 3 and Pick 4 to the Lotto.com platform. Both games are old favorites, especially in New Jersey, and ultimately provide our players with more fun ways to play. We are proud to help grow the Lottery’s contributions to education and institutions which was over $1 billion in fiscal 2021,” said Thomas Metzger, CEO of Lotto.com Inc. “As we grow Lotto.com, our focus continues to be on technology and convenience that puts the player first and we are excited to be the first to offer all Pick 3 and Pick 4 bet types online!”
Launching first in New Jersey in June 2021, Lotto.com operates a state-of-the-art e-commerce platform based on four key pillars, including convenience, security, safety, and peace of mind, all of which enables players to buy official state lottery tickets from the comfort of their own home or on the go. Since its inception, Lotto.com has focused on building a product that meets the needs of today’s lottery player, which has led to approximately 75% of users returning to the platform to continue play and repurchase tickets. Moreover, the continued growth and expansion of Lotto.com swiftly follows the company’s iCAP accreditation that was received in August of this year, which is the highest standard in the U.S. for online responsible gaming and highlights their commitment to safer play.
Currently, anyone over 18 physically located in the state of New Jersey can purchase state lottery tickets via Lotto.com, as well as access information about previous and future draws. Lotto.com will soon be announcing plans to expand nationally, with the aim of making the lottery more accessible to as many people as possible across the U.S. To learn more, visit lotto.com or follow Lotto.com on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook.

PAGCOR donates emergency vehicles to five new beneficiaries

PAGCOR Chairman and CEO Alejandro H. Tengco (4th from left) leads the formal turnover of brand-new Patient Transport Vehicles to five new beneficiaries represented by Benito Soliven (Isabela) Mayor John Paul Azur (2nd from left); former Parañaque City Rep. Gus Tambunting (3rd from left); San Pedro City Mayor Art Mercado (5th from right); Dr. Anna Ruby Gapasin of the Polytechnic University of the Philippines (3rd from right) and PUP Medical Director Dr. Liza Yanes (2nd from right); and 2nd Lt. Cassay Marie Chua of Joint Task Unit Ilocos Headquarters (extreme right).
In support of President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.’s program to provide all local government units with patient transport vehicles or PTVs, the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation on Wednesday turned over such vehicles to five more LGUs and institutions.
The latest recipients include the municipality of Benito Soliven in Isabela; San Pedro City in Laguna; the Polytechnic University of the Philippines (PUP); Ospital ng Parañaque; and the Joint Task Force Unit Ilocos (JTUI) Headquarters.
PAGCOR Chairman and CEO Alejandro H. Tengco said the donation aims to strengthen the medical and disaster-response capabilities of local government units, public institutions, and security forces as advocated by President Marcos.
“Each PTV we turn over is a step closer to making vital medical services more accessible to every Filipino,” Mr. Tengco said.
Mayor Art Mercado of San Pablo City, one of the LGU recipients, said the vehicle will significantly enhance the city’s emergency response, particularly for low-income communities.
“It’s a lifeline that will help us save more lives,” he said.
Former Congressman Gus Tambunting also welcomed the donation to the Ospital ng Parañaque, saying: “With this PTV, our hospital can immediately respond to urgent cases, particularly those in need of immediate referral to larger medical facilities.”
At PUP, where thousands of students attend daily classes, the donated PTV is seen as an essential addition.
“In emergency medical situations on campus, this vehicle could spell the difference between life and death,” said university official Dr. Anna Ruby Gapasin.
2nd Lt. Cassay Marie Chua of the Joint Task Force Unit Ilocos, meanwhile, emphasized the importance of medical mobility in their operations.
“This transport vehicle will greatly support our troop welfare and humanitarian missions, especially during calamities,” he said.
Since the program’s launch last February, PAGCOR has already donated 35 PTVs to LGUs, hospitals, and frontline agencies to help ensure timely and safe medical transport across the country.
Aside from PAGCOR, the Office of the President and the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office are also distributing PTVs to local government units nationwide.

Devilfish.com Sells Out Genesis NFT Collection, Pioneering a Sweepstakes-Style Model for Social Poker

Stand-first: The sell-out of the Web3 poker brands first digital asset collection underscores significant market demand for a community-led, free-to-play poker experience poised to disrupt the traditional player acquisition funnel.
Main Release
Devilfish.com, the Web3-powered social poker brand, today announced the complete sell-out of its Genesis Avatar NFT collection. This milestone validates the company’s strategic approach to creating a player centric brand, which applies a sweepstakes-membership style, free-to-play (F2P) model to poker, creating a powerful new top-of-funnel acquisition and retention engine for the industry.
The success of the Genesis Mint signals a clear market appetite for players to be part of a brand and a new social movement, as against the high-friction, real-money-first poker model, which has long struggled with high customer acquisition costs (CPAs) and a significant player churn rate. By removing the initial financial barrier commitment from the player, Devilfish.com is building a vibrant and engaged community, attracting a diverse demographic of traditional poker players, gamers, and crypto natives.
This F2P, community-centric model is designed to address the industry’s long-standing retention problem, where an estimated 85% of recreational players are long-term net losers, resulting in a poor player experience.
JJ Williams, CEO of Devilfish.com, commented: “We are thrilled by the overwhelming response to our Genesis collection, but we are not surprised. This is a powerful signal of how creating a brand centric story to the industry that poker has a sustainability problem and that the solution lies within the community, not just in cash.
For too long, the industry has focused on a small segment of winning players while inadvertently punishing the vast majority who play for the love of the game. Our community platform model offers a welcoming, safe haven and a gamified environment that enables you to master the game without incurring a financial burden, promoting a healthier ecosystem in the era of responsible gambling requirements. This sell-out isn’t just a win for Devilfish; it’s the blueprint for the future of brand-led community poker engagement.”
Inspired by the explosive growth of social and sweepstakes casinos, Devilfish.com is positioning itself as a vital partner for the broader gaming industry. For online operators, land-based casinos, and poker publishers, the platform offers a low-friction pathway to attract new demographics, build massive prospect databases, and re-engage lapsed players in a brand-safe environment.
The Genesis Avatars represent a player’s unique digital identity, which is a significant component of the Devilfish brand ecosystem, including membership. It grants holders access to exclusive benefits and a stake in the community’s future. The company will now focus on executing its roadmap, which includes expanding the platform’s features and delivering the promised utility to its founding members.
