Georgia Fantasy 5 Results

How to Play

Georgia Fantasy 5 is a straightforward daily draw game that gives players the chance to win jackpots starting at $125,000. To play, choose 5 numbers from 1 to 42, or select Quik Pik to have the computer randomly generate your numbers. Each play costs $1 times the number of drawings you want to enter.

Number Selection: Pick any 5 numbers between 1 and 42, or use the Quik Pik feature for random selection. You can manually fill out a playslip at any Georgia Lottery retailer or purchase tickets online.

Multi-Draw Options: Save time and never miss a drawing by purchasing tickets for multiple consecutive drawings. You can play the same numbers for up to 14 consecutive drawings using the Multi-Draw feature. Simply mark the Multi-Draw box on your playslip and select how many drawings you want to enter (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 14 draws).

Cash Match Add-On: For an additional $1 per play, you can add the Cash Match instant-win feature to your Fantasy 5 ticket. Cash Match numbers print automatically on your ticket when you select this option. Scratch off the play area to reveal your Cash Match numbers. Match any of your Cash Match numbers to the winning number and win that prize instantly - up to $500! Cash Match prizes can be claimed immediately at any Georgia Lottery retailer, even before the Fantasy 5 drawing takes place.

Prize Structure: Fantasy 5 features a unique pari-mutuel prize structure for the top three tiers. This means that a percentage of ticket sales is allocated to each prize category, and winners share the prize pool equally within their tier. The prize pool distribution is as follows:

• Match 5 of 5: 72.51% of prize pool (jackpot starts at $125,000)
• Match 4 of 5: 8.70% of prize pool (average prize approximately $113)
• Match 3 of 5: 18.79% of prize pool (average prize approximately $9)
• Match 2 of 5: Free Quik Pik ticket for the next drawing

Jackpot Details: The Fantasy 5 jackpot starts at a guaranteed $125,000 and grows with each drawing when there is no jackpot winner. All jackpot prizes are awarded, with the total amount divided equally among all players who match all 5 numbers. If there are no jackpot winners, the prize funds roll over to the next drawing, creating even larger jackpots.

Quick Pick vs Manual Selection: Players can choose their own numbers or opt for Quick Pick (Quik Pik). Quick Pick randomly generates 5 numbers for you, which many players prefer for its convenience and truly random selection.

How to Win: Match your selected numbers to the numbers drawn. You can win by matching as few as 2 numbers (wins a free ticket) up to all 5 numbers (wins the jackpot). The more numbers you match, the higher your prize. All prizes except the free ticket for matching 2 numbers are cash prizes paid as lump sums.

Overall Odds: The overall odds of winning any prize in Georgia Fantasy 5 are 1 in 10.06, making it one of Georgia's most player-friendly games.

Claiming Prizes: Prizes must be claimed within 180 days (approximately 6 months) from the drawing date. Prizes up to $600 can be claimed at any Georgia Lottery retailer. Prizes from $601 to $250,000 can be claimed at Georgia Lottery district offices or by mail. Prizes over $250,000 must be claimed at Georgia Lottery headquarters in Atlanta.
