How to play Fantasy 5
Fantasy 5 is a lottery draw game that costs $1 per play. You can visit your local lottery retailer to play this game. To play, select five numbers between 1 and 36. If you prefer not to choose your own numbers, you can check the Quick Pick box on your play slip, and the computer will generate random numbers for you. Next, mark the draw time (or choose both draw times) on your slip and hand it to the retail attendant. You will receive a printed ticket for that drawing. If you select both draw times, you will receive two separate tickets – one for each drawing. If you do not select a draw time, your numbers will be entered into the next available drawing.
Fantasy 5 draw times
Florida Fantasy 5 has two drawings each day: afternoon at 12:45 p.m. ET and evening at 10:55 p.m. ET. You can purchase tickets up to 20 minutes before the drawing. Tickets purchased after that timeframe will be entered into the next available draw.
Fantasy 5 Add-ons
There are two optional add-ons for the Fantasy 5 game. These are:
- EZmatch: For an additional $1, you can select the EZmatch add-on. This feature gives you a chance to win cash instantly.
- Advanced Play: Advanced play gives you the option to play the same numbers for up to 30 consecutive days – that's a total of up to 60 consecutive drawings. To use Advanced Play, simply choose the number of days in the Advanced Play section of your play slip. If you do not select a draw time, the time at which you purchase your Fantasy 5 ticket will determine the Advanced Play draw selection.
How to win Fantasy 5
To win this game, two or more of your chosen numbers must match the numbers drawn:
- Match 2 numbers – you win a free ticket.
- Match 3 numbers – you win $10.
- Match 4 numbers – you win $107.
- Match 5 numbers- you win $100,000.
The jackpot prize will be shared if there is more than one winner.
