Last nights FF5 numbers all came in under 10. How about that. How many times have than happen before?

I remember when 98 people won fantasy 5 in 2012.

Instead of the usual $50,000 to $250,000 payout, the jackpot awarded each winner roughly the amount of a mortgage payment: $1,992.32.

The winning numbers – 1-3-5-7-9 – are played by people in a hurry, people who pick birthdays and people who aren’t very bright, said Todd Northrop, who operates LotteryPost.com.

“If you play the numbers everybody else plays, you’re not going to win very much money,” said Northrop, who advises players to include at least one number above 31 so they’ll separate themselves from those people who play birthdays and will be less likely to have to split a jackpot.

I sound a little harsh in that 2012 article!

Great question! There was once a time when I could tell you the number of times it has happened, but unfortunately the hard drive of the PC that contained the software I could've used to find the answer died. I have and use different lottery software in my current PC, and it doesn't have some of the functionality that the software on my old PC had.

I do know that when I used my old PC to learn the answer to the same question you've asked, (but I didn't do it for Fantasy5 as I was living in New York at the time, and I did it for NY's Take5 game) there were just a handful of times when all five winning numbers came from the same "decade". (Singles, Teens, Twenty's & Thirty's) Take5 has a history of more than 8,000 drawings and FF5 currently has 7,358.

It's a little harder for all five winning numbers to come from the Singles due to the fact there are nine numbers in that particular group. So there is a smaller subset of combo's within the Singles. It's hardest of all for the Thirty's to have five winning numbers to come from that group due to just seven numbers being included in the Thirty's decade.

Added to the fact that the Singles number group has nine numbers is that all five winning numbers were odd. (there are a total of 8,568 all odd number combo's out of FF5's total of 376,992, but not all 8,586 are in just one number group) How many combo's of five odd numbers are contained within the Singles number group is another good question. And how many times has a combo like that been drawn? (probably once and that was this recent one)

So this is something that probably wont be seen again for quite a while. But then, who knows? Sixty times since July of 2001, a set of five FF5 winning numbers was drawn for a second time. The sixty-th time it happened was on August 26th, 2021. Everybody says that shouldn't happen, but it does. G5

"Harsh"? Nah. Frank or candid is more like it.

The truth can be hard for someone to hear, but nonetheless it's still the truth. G5

The month has started off with a lot of low numbers. When I look back, June started the same way and yet 24 ended up having the most hits that month. What is interesting is 7, 8 & 9 hit in the first 4 days and then they all hit together on Sept 5. And then 7, 8 & 9 have all hit since! With 20 already hitting 3 times, I would love to see that 20/24 combo that was also popular in June. Throw in 28 and we could have a winning month!

You're right, June was a huge month for single digit numbers. Of the 150 numbers drawn in June, 51 were single digit numbers. So far in September, the singles have 17 hits out of the 40 balls drawn. If they keep appearing like they have been we could easily see another fifty+ hits for the singles in September.

I'm playing #28 heavily...almost on every line I play. It's skipped the last six draws so it should come out soon. #20 disappeared for a while but hopefully it's back. It still in second place with 45 hits, so it's a smart pick. G5

The best day of the week to play FF5 is Saturday because the jackpot pay outs are usually a total of $210,000 or more. Last night 1 winner won $213,609.

I looked back at every Saturday from last night to July 2, 2021 on The Florida Lottery's Fantasy 5 Top Prize Winner Report. I saw that on each and every Saturday since last night there was a JP winner(s) of over $200,000. In the case of 2 or more winners, the amount of money all winners won totaled well over $200,000.

I'm sure that many players must be aware of the above. The reason you'll very likely see a jackpot winner every Saturday, is because the amount of tickets sold produces sufficient "coverage" of FF5's 376,992 combinations to produce one or more jackpot winner. G5

Last night: 2 17 18 28 35

50th hit of 2021 for #28. Are ya playin' it??? I'm playin' it and on a ten line ticket that I bought yesterday, I won EIGHT Free Tickets. #28 has been on fire and the top hitter of 2021 since last March 31st. It's gonna have 65 to 68 hits this year and be the top hitter of the year. Closest number to it (#20) has 45 hits in 2021.

Here's a little food for thought - when you play #28 on all lines on your ticket, and it actually comes out, the odds of matching the other four numbers and winning a FF5 jackpot are 1 in 2,432. That's a lot better than 376,992 to 1 dontcha think? G5

Last night's set of five winning FF5 numbers was the 61st time in the entire history of the game (since July of 2001) that were drawn for a second time. They were first drawn drawn on 9/24/2006. G5

Fellow FL Fantasy Five player here, scooped up 96 tickets tonight. There was a range analysis that I posted here some years ago which tells you what numbers are likely to play in each position for the Fantasy Five.

I will post a Total analysis table soon. Pooling ticket s will also increase your odds of winning.

Last night: 7 20 26 27 28

Thanks to #28 appearing for the 51st time in 2021, I snagged a three bagger and won $10.50 along with two Free Tickets. Couldn't have come at a better time - I'm playing for free tonight and Saturday night is always has the biggest jackpot of the week. Tonight's jackpot will total in excess of $200,000. Hope there is only one winner and it's ME!!!

Last time I hit for money was on August 4th when I won $22.00 - was beginning to think I was never gonna win cash ever again. G5

Although #28 hit in Position #5 the last time it came out, it has hit in Position #4 ten more times as it has in position #5 and twice as many times as it has hit in Position #3.

Here's the breakout for #28 by Position number for 2021 (Total of 51 hits);

Position #1 - 0 hits

Position #2 - 1 hit

Position #3 - 12 hits

Position #4 - 24 hits

Position #5 - 14 hits

When you play #28, it makes the most sense for it to be in Position #4 on the lines you play, because that's the position it's likely to appear in when you check last nights drawing results. G5

Good strategy here G5, you have to look at the position each number is popular in and play them there the most. You can play them in other positions but mostly where they are popular. I shared my position analysis a couple years ago but I find am having issues posting images here but I will try to share it again. It shows all 5 positions and how many times each number played there.
