Pick 5
Pick 5 is a fast-paced FL game with a top prize of $50,000! Play your way - Straight, Box, or Straight/Box. There are two chances to win every day in the midday and evening drawings. Add the Fireball option to increase your chances of taking home a prize.
There are drawings seven days a week. The midday draw takes place at 1:30 PM ET. The evening drawing is held at 9:45 PM ET. You may purchase tickets up to 12 minutes before the next draw to play in that draw. So to be entered in the midday draw, buy your tickets by 1:18 PM. To play the evening draw, get your tickets by 9:33 PM.
How to Play
Your playslip has five panels, labeled A-E. Each panel equals one play. For each panel you want to play, choose one number from 0 through 9 for each of the five columns. Your ticket will print with a five-digit Pick 5 number. There's also the option to use Quick Pick for an automatic random number selection for some or all of the panels.
Choose your play type: Straight, Box,or Straight/Box. A Straight play is a wager on your numbers being drawn in that exact order, while a Box is a wager that allows your numbers to be drawn in any order. A Straight/Box combines the two.
You can play for 50¢ or $1. All Straight/Box plays cost $1, with half the cost going on each play type.
Pick the draw time: MID for midday, EVE for evening, or BOTH for both draws. If you choose BOTH, you'll get two tickets, one for the midday and one for the evening draw. If you don't mark a time, the terminal will print a ticket for the next available draw.
Advance Play gives you the option to play the same numbers, play types, and draw times for up to 14 consecutive days. To use Advance Play, just mark the number of days you want to play in the "Days" area.
You will receive a ticket for each set of numbers and draw date(s) you're playing.
If you win a prize on an Advance Play ticket and want to claim it before all the drawings you entered have taken place, you'll get a continuation ticket with the same numbers and play types for remaining draws.
During the Pick 5 drawing, five numbers will be selected randomly. See below for prizes and odds of winning.
Fireball
Fireball is a sizzling add-on option for your Pick 5 ticket that can increase the chances of taking home a prize. Fireball doubles the cost of your play and applies to all panels.
A Fireball number from 0-9 is drawn twice daily just after the main Pick 5 game - use it to replace any Pick 5 number for extra ways to make a winning combination. You can score a prize on Pick 5, Fireball, or even both!

| NOTE: Pick 5 offers set prize payouts & the FL Lottery has established a $7 million liability limit for any specific five-digit number in each drawing. If any five-digit combination (e.g. 77777) is purchased often enough for a single drawing that the liability limit would be exceeded, the Lottery will "cut off" further sales for that particular number combination. Players who have already played the numbers are still eligible to win the full prize amount. | ||||
