ABSTRACT:
A method for playing an extension game to an instant lottery game is disclosed. A player purchases an instant lottery game and wins a prize for the instant lottery game. The player is provided a chance to participate in the extension game of double-or-nothing. If the player chooses to participate in the extension game of double-or-nothing, the player tenders his winning ticket to a lottery retailer. The winning ticket is scanned by a lottery terminal and a result is generated for the extension game of double-or-nothing. If the winning ticket is also a winner of the extension game, the player doubles his winning. If the winning ticket is not a winner, the player forfeits his winning from the instant lottery game.
