Take 5 New YorkReply
Yeah that really blows, its like a being on a roller coaster ... you get all excited for having 4#s, then realize its more than the retailer can pay so you have to go the claim office (or mail it even worse)! The good thing though is that you get the whole amount right then and there, they just send you the 1099 for tax time! Amounts over $5000 will get taxed on the spot. Good Luck today!

CA Fantasy-5 Crazy Numbers TonightReply
They (OH CA, and others) may look about the same. Somehow I don't think the 5 balls in the hopper will generate the rare event that 4 numbers will repeat from anywhere w/in the last 10 draws or the extremely rare event such as 11/15/00 and 11/25/00 where all 5 numbers repeated-- same 5 #'s for both dates (for CA F5); and on 11/25/00 28 people (or tickets) split the match 5/5 top prize. Anyone across the US can go to the official CALottery website and download the entire dataset in text fo

misprinted slips
Today I played a regular fantasy 5 but the machine printed a ticket with an EZ match. The owner said to give her another dollar, which I didn't have. I showed them that there was no EZmatch marked on the ticket. She gave me the dollar back and kept the ticket and said 2 dollar loss . I am assuming that the EZ match didn't win anything or they would have been happy to keep it. That is the second time that has happened. Time to permanently find a another retailer as the

I was just scanning through the Jackpot Winners and Retailer Information report for FF5. Should you win a FF5 jackpot, it's very likely that you'll share it with another player(s) located elsewhere if Florida. There are very few six figure jackpot winners listed per page on the report. Many pages don't even have a six figure jackpot prize listed. Of course when I play FF5, I always assume that I'll be the lone jackpot winner. But that's a bad assumption. Not that I wouldn't take ANY jack

Everything that you wrote I agree with. No doubt that it's discouraging to keep on playing only to win small prizes every so often. But here's something to help keep you from being discouraged. Although we cant see the players that won a jackpot who's names are listed on The Top Prize and Retailer Information Report, I can almost guarantee you that they're NOT all young people that only started playing the lottery recently. In fact if you could see them, what you'd see are older people (45

Yes, The Snowbirds are definitely in town................ The Top Prize Winners and Retailer Report reveals that on 1/24/2023 a woman from West Haven Connecticut roared into Sebastian Florida, picked five numbers, and walked away with $34,860 before taxes. I'm totally jealous. That's because I know West Haven... it's a nice town... but that lady should stay in Ct and play her own stupid lottery. I'm sure she completely disagrees with me. I can see her now giddily calling all of her frie

Fla33023...... Sorry, but there is no such thing as a lucky Publix in Orlando..... There are lots of them! I searched the FF5 Top Prize Winners and Retailer Report for the word Orlando . Turned out there are many Publix store's in Orlando that have sold a FF5 jackpot winner. 7-Eleven had a bunch of them too. Those two stores sell the most FF5 tickets in The State of Florida so it's no surprise they sold the most jackpot winners. Pick any Publix in Orlando you want. One's as good as anoth

Some more nice to know but worthless FF5 trivia regarding jackpots in 2022; There have been a total of 43 jackpots won. Of those, 12 were won by one player. Two of them were divided among six players...(Yuck!) There have been 14 Roll Downs where nobody won the jackpot. Of the Free Ticket winners, one player was lucky enough to win it all and not have to share it with another player. That Lucky Dog won $211,277 on Saturday 2/19/2022. .... The average amount of all jackpots in 2022 is $141,5

Last Night: 18 21 22 26 27 It took a while this month for The Twenty's to assert itself... They now have 39 hits in February. I was hammering away at The Teens...shows you what I know! One Free Ticket is the best I could do. Usually the first Number Group to reach 40 hits during any given month typically wins the race for most hits of the month, so it looks like with just three drawings left in February The Twenty's are going to be the Top Dog. Somebody won JPT with a Free Ticket sold

I have been entering and submitting my FF5 tickets in the bonus promotion using the lottery's app on my smartphone. Today I read on The Florida Lottery's website that players should keep their original tickets as they might be needed to claim a bonus prize. Now they tell me..... If my FF5 ticket was a loser, after I scanned it with my phone to enter the promotion, it hit the garbage can. If I won cash with my FF5 ticket, the retailer paid me my prize money and I guess they threw it out...
