Couldn't agree more if I had to. The thing I can't understand is how did The Florida Lottery benefit from adding a midday drawing? They said they were doing it for the players, but that's pure BS. No business does anything without something in it for themselves. I seriously doubt they saw an uptick in the amount of money they were taking in by adding the midday drawing. If anything, I think some players stopped playing Fantasy5 because of the hit to the size of jackpots. IMHO that lowers th

Number 8 skipped 68 consecutive drawings this year.... from 2/22/2025's Evening drawing until March 28th's Evening drawing. I couldn't find any other FF5 number with more than 68 drawings skipped and my software goes back to November 22nd of 2005. FF5 began earlier than than that date, so it's possible that another number could have skipped more than 68 drawings, but if it happened, it didn't happen a lot. G5

Yesterday something unusual happened to me with FF5. I haven't played FF5 in quite a long time. I can't remember when I might have last played, but it was probably in late September or early October. So yesterday afternoon I decided I was going to buy a $10 ticket for yesterday's Evening drawing. I keep my eye on the numbers even when I don't play, and what I normally see is repeaters and adjacents happening in many drawings. I sat down at my computer and started my lottery softwar

I realize that from a FF5 players perspective going to two draws per day flat out stinks, and that me posting all of the hidden benefits for the Florida Lottery doesn't make it any better for players. However there is one more thing I'd like to say and then I'll stop my long winded rants. I think in 2020 (not sure if that's the correct year or not, but if it's not 2020 then it's close to 2020) The New York Lottery implemented two drawings per day for their Pick5 game, Take5. Take5 is close t

I need to correct this statement in my post above - Therefore if a jackpot payable to a player for last nights Evening drawing is $110,000, then that is 62% of the total prize pool which had to be approximately $177,000. I should have written it this way - Therefore if a jackpot payable to a player for last nights Evening drawing is $110,000, then that's 62% of the WINNING prize pool which had to be approximately $177,000. My apologies for my confusion. G5

Thanks for the input... though I'm not much of a Pick2 3 or 5 player. Players sometimes say There are more jackpot wins with QP's than Player picks .. but that's because 75% of the online games tickets sold are QP's. Another reason I like the partial QP is because I want to cover both bases, QP's and Player Picks. As of last night's Evening FF5 drawing #'s 24 and 29 are tied for the lead with six hits each. These four numbers have yet to be drawn in December - 1, 12, 32 34. #24 and

Take 5 NYReply
In total agreement....By the way, I keep Free Play Tickets on file (for at least 2 weeks) just to analyze some things I noticed that after 3-5 days , usually 3 numbers comes out either on Midday or Evening drawing.

Take 5 NYReply
Yesterday s midday drawing gave us yet another triple five number match in NY Take 5 keeping MY total to 119 matches, including the three sets that matched three times each. 03-18-21-26-35 was previously drawn for the evening drawings on 08/09/2002 and 12/20/2018. Peace and Blessed Be.

I noticed the 50k midday even split. The midday drawing is normally underwhelming with a daily jackpot hovering around 50 to 60 thousand. I think a $100,000 minimum is wonderful. There is always a promotion on Fantasy5 if you spend $5. I don't normally spend that much in one draw, but others may.
