2 21 23 24 37

1 6 7 15 35

Nice going with the numbers. What does FP stands for? Friendly picks? Fast pick? Forever pick?...

Thanks diamondpalace! FP stands for Free Play, which is how NY Lottery lists it when you hit 2 numbers, you win a Free Play.  If you buy a Quick Pick they then call it QP.  On there web site they list next to the winners by QP or FP or nothing - which means you picked your own numbers.  It is interesting to see that there are more FP's & QP's for winners than picking your own, which is why I am playing QP's alot!

Ah yes, Free Play.

NYC have a high population, would not be surprised people are into QP's as selecting own numbers do take time. QP also tends to bounce around within all the possible combinations, which hit or misses the jackpots. If you can afford it, try playing with your number and a QP, $1 each to see how well you can do with your selections. QP and FP is 2 to 1 Self Picks. Bu that's not a real accuratecy, with 100 people perhaps 90 are playing QP...and with those 90 QP, and 10 self picks there will be many FP. There will be more winners in QP and FP. :)

I think it is also good to play self picks as QP and FP are accessible. When having a self made metod there is a higher chance of hitting the jackpot multiple times. Good luck!

I hear ya about adding qp's with my own numbers.  Thats why I picked up another qp tonight...

9 12 26 35 39

Cool. Good luck!

Thanks!, picked up the following qp for tonight...

11 16 23 27 36

Another qp for tonight...

3 22 24 34 38

Check out tonight QP!! Never seen a qp with this HIGH a starting number!

28 30 33 34 36

Rare one indeed.

28 30 33 34 36

BC Number Groups<----danger!
0-0-1-4 possition<----danger!
4 even / 1 odd<---caution
0 Low / 5 High<----danger!
Consecutive: 33,34<---normal
Sum: 161 <----danger!

Extreme combo.

WOW, nice breakdown.  And of course hit for nothing on those numbers but got another qp for tonight...

This one is a LITTLE more normal.

6 8 15 20 33

Yes, this one have a good shot! Do you only play with $1 QP? I usually play with $1 self-pick, and if I win extra I include the extra $1 for QP. Opposite. :)

I play the following numbers as normal numbers

1 6 9 21 25

2 4 8 27 39

5 8 13 18 39

then add the qp's 

and thanks to the 1 & 9 last night got a FP 

7 8 11 17 37

Thanks to the 2 & 39 last night I won a Free Play

8 14 16 27 30

and bought a qp

14 18 27 32 38

$$$$$$ hit for $17.50 last night on

12,13,18,22,34

10,14,18,21,31

Thanks Set4life,

Interesting set of numbers notice the repeats, 22, 18, & 1

I picked up a QP for tonight since I hit on the trip 8s this morning

21 23 24 31 33

TYPICAL NY Take 5!!!!

it gave you ONE number 8, and you missed by one on the 29 to at least get a FP!!!!

I was able to get a FP on the 8 & 15 for a FP

I picked up 5 QP's for last nights draw

Got 3/5 for $20.50 on the7 19 29 30 39

So I bought 5 more for tonight plus they gave me 1 free be

   all QP's

14 19 21 25 33

1    8  22 27 31

4   6   17 31  38

 8  9  11 23 27

13 14 19 32 39

Tonights qp is...

11 17 18 28 30

interesting no singles...

Nice hit!!

I have yet to buy 5 qp's to get one free but might have to try that next time I hit on Take 5 or maybe on the 3 way.

Thanks,

Yea I hear you on that, I seam to get more action on a single FP than when I buy 5 or more.

What Ive been doing lately is Buying 5 of the take 5 scratchers at a time, and usually get 2-3 FP's

and a couple bucks here and there.

Ha! thats funny I have been doing the same thing, about 2 or three times a month I get Take 5 scratchers and have only won $1 or a fp....

Tonights qp is....

9 14 33 36 37 (lots-o-30's?)

Thanks to the 21 & 25 last night got a fp...

6 21 23 35 38

Ok, that was just WRONG what NY Lottery did last nite with the Take 5!!

Winning numbers were 

23 25 33 36 39 - I hit the 23, missed by ONE on the 36 & 39!!!!!!!

Interesting, after complaining about missing by one, NY Lottery gives me 2 FP's

first one from the 4 & 8 on one ticket

2nd one from the 5 & 8 on one ticket

So here are the two FP's

6 9 11 24 32

3 5 7 20 36

Ok nothing from last nights FP's so here is todays QP

8 17 20 21 31

Old lady in front of me had 4 numbers from last night and would not stop talking to me about how she almost split 89k for like 10 minutes and just wouldnt play her numbers and let me get out of the store.  Luckily when I hit 4 no one hit 5 so I was able to walk away with a grand.  No FP or QP for me tonight trying my own system, will see how I do.

Oh, yea I know how you feel I have been there before.

Got a Fp from last nites numbers

4 7 8 19 31

Thanks to the 5 & 8 last night got another FP for tonight

2 5 19 31 36 (no 20's?)

Plus since there was NO 1st place winner yesterday if you hit 2nd look how much you won, BUT since it is over $600 you would have to claim it and pay tax! !

5 - 8 - 16 - 17 - 32

And thanks to the 2 & 7 from last night I have another FP for tonight

3 5 11 31 32

Got another QP for tonight since I hit on the 3 way

16 19 23 26 36

interesting, 3 numbers ending with a 6?

Got another FP thanks to the 5 & 39

8 22 28 35 36

Got another FP from last nights numbers

9 13 26 36 38

I think it was monday or sunday this week I bought 7 sratchers and won 5- fp's.

So I've been turning them in one day at a timeand finally i got some action off of them.

Last night got one with 18 25 29 32 38

so that 3/5 for $24

If only that 25 was a 24 it would've been a $500 payout!!

Nice hit, and yea I know what ya mean about being *1* off for some real money!!

Now have you been better with your own numbers or qp's/fp's

Have'nt tried my own numbers latley, can't seem to nail down any trends.

But I got my last 2 fp's from earlier this week for tonight

1, 8, 15, 27, 30

6, 10, 21, 29, 36

Pretty even spread, hopefully they wont come out all bunched up

good luck!

Yea one thing I have noticed is that QP's & FP's win jackpots just a little more than picking your own numbers.

I got a QP for tonight

5 12 21 27 32

good luck tonight!
