The Texas Two Step is one of the most popular games. This drawing game involves picking four numbers between one and thirty-five and one additional bonus ball number. To win the grand prize of at least two hundred thousand dollars, you must match all five of the numbers. Prizes roll over from one drawing to the next if no one wins and you can still win prizes for matching fewer numbers than all five.
