Abstract
An on-line lottery game method is disclosed. The game method includes the steps of providing a base lottery game, in known fashion, and an extension game offered in association with the base lottery game wherein those lottery game players who selectively choose to play the extension game are issued lottery game tickets bearing game indicia selected by the lottery system from a set of game indicia separate from that of player selected indicia. A drawing is held in the normal fashion for the base lottery game, and a drawing is held for the extension game in which game indicia from the second set of game indicia which match the player selected game indicia determine winners of the extension game.
