SECTION 7. Neither the retailer validation code, the pack-ticket number, the validation number, nor any portion thereof are play symbols or prize symbols and are not usable or playable as such.

SECTION 8. A prize winner in scratch-off game number 187 is determined by removing the scratch-off material from the game areas revealing a total of thirty-nine (39) play and prize symbols. In each separate and independent "GAME", if any of the play symbols for that GAME match any of the "LUCKY NUMBERS" play symbols the ticket holder is entitled to win the corresponding prize shown for that "GAME".
