How Bulls-Eye works

Bulls-Eye is an optional add-on that costs an amount equal to your Hot Spot wager. One of the 20 numbers drawn each game is designated the Bulls-Eye number. If that number is among the numbers you matched, you win the larger Bulls-Eye prize for that match level instead of the base Hot Spot prize. You do not pick any extra numbers for it.
