What Are Power Plays?

If you’re looking for a higher-risk, higher-reward play, look no further than Power Plays. You pick 2-6 squares, and if they all win, you get a huge payout! But if even one loses, the entire lineup loses. 

For each pick in a Power Play that is ruled a DNP (Did Not Play) or ties its projection, your payout multiplier will go down by one tier . For example, a 4-Pick Power with a DNP or tie becomes a 3-Pick Power.

The standard payouts for Power Play lineups are:

6-Pick Power Play

6/6 = 37.5X

EX. A $10 winning 6-Pick Power pays $375 total.

5-Pick Power Play

5/5 = 20X

EX. A $10 winning 5-Pick Power pays $200 total.


4-Pick Power Play

4/4 = 10X

EX. A $10 winning 4-Pick Power pays $100 total.

3-Pick Power Play

3/3 = 5X

EX. A $10 winning 3-Pick Power pays $50 total.

2-Pick Power Plays

2/2 = 3X

EX. A $10 2-Pick Power pays $30 total. 

What Are Flex Plays?

Flex Plays are the safest way to play PrizePicks! You can still win money even if a couple of your picks don’t hit. 

When new members first start playing PrizePicks, it’s recommended that they start with Flex Plays to build both their confidence and their bankroll. But just because Flex Plays are safer doesn’t mean you can’t win BIG with them. You can still 25X your cash with Flex Plays!

The payouts for Flex Plays are:

6-Pick Flex Play

6/6 = 25X

5/6 = 2X

4/6 =.4X

EX. A $10 6-Pick Flex that goes 6/6 pays $250 total. 

EX. A $10 6-Pick Flex that goes 5/6 pays $20 total. 

EX. A $10 6-Pick Flex that goes 4/6 pays $4 total

5-Pick Flex Play

5/5 = 10X

4/5 = 2X

3/5 =.4X

4-Pick Flex Play

EX. A $10 3-Pick Flex that goes 2/3  = $12.50

What about lineups with Demon or Goblin projections?

Great question!

The PrizePicks projection board features some projections that can change your standard payout multiplier. Squares marked with a red Demon can increase your payout multiplier when added to your lineup (up to 1000x!), but they also make it more challenging to win. Squares with a green Goblin do the opposite; you'll have a higher chance of building a winning lineup, but you may see your payout multiplier lowered as a result.

Check out our Demons and Goblins page for more information.
