    How it works
    Pick 5 numbers from 1 to 36. Match 2 to 5 of the 5 numbers drawn to win.
    Prizes
    Fantasy 5 prizes are pari-mutuel: each prize level gets a share of sales, split equally among its winners, so the amounts shown are estimates. Prizes below the top prize are rounded down to the nearest 50¢. Every cash prize is paid at once, never in installments.
    Rolldown
    If no ticket matches all 5 numbers, the top prize money rolls down to the 4-of-5 winners, up to $555 each, and anything left over goes to the 3-of-5 winners. If no ticket matches 3, that money is added to the next drawing's top prize.
    EZ Match
    EZmatch works like a scratch-off: the terminal decides at purchase whether your ticket wins, so you can claim an EZmatch prize before the drawing. You can win up to five times on one ticket. An Advance Play ticket gets one set of EZmatch numbers, not one per drawing.
    Advance Play
    If you don't choose a drawing, your ticket is for the next one. Advance Play counts days, not drawings, so 30 days of both drawings is 60 drawings. Midday and evening drawings print on separate tickets.
