Michigan Lottery players seem to win big and win often, especially with a popular game like Fantasy 5. This is true for one lucky player from the city of Warren.

The anonymous player was at a Kenny’s Wine Shop and purchased a Fantasy 5 ticket. Shortly after purchasing their ticket, they found out that they had won $401,175.

Game Details

• Estimated Jackpot: $100,000
• Ticket Cost: $1.00
• Drawing Schedule: Daily at 7:29 p.m.

How to Play

To begin, players select five numbers out of a set from one to 39. “Easy Pick” will allow the machine to randomly select these numbers, but there are also add-on features that could change the way you win prizes.

Double Play is one of those options, which will allow you to use the same numbers that you just picked but for an immediate second drawing in hopes for a chance to win up to $110,000. Another add-on is EZmatch, and this gives players the ability to have a specific EZmatch number that is used to match a number for a chance to win $500 instantly.

Each of those additional features will make the ticket cost one dollar more. Remember that these are optional, and you do not need them to win the jackpot or larger prizes.

Odds, Price, and Prizes

If you would like to increase your chances of winning a prize, then purchasing another ticket or the add-on features could allow you to do this. Keep in mind that every ticket and add-on will cost one dollar each, so three dollars is the max per play.

Looking at the odds, the regular drawing consists of overall odds of 1 in 9. If you are able to match the jackpot, like the player from Warren did, then the odds are 1:575,757 when matching all five numbers.

The prizes will vary depending on the add-on you choose or by simply playing without anything. For the regular play, it is $1, $10, $100, and then the current jackpot at the time of purchase.

The Double Play option consists of the exact same odds as the regular draw along with the prizes, but
prizes are in doubles. For example, the prizes are $2, $20, $200, and then $110,000 for matching all five.

The odds of winning a single EZmatch prize are 1 in 5.

Below are the EZmatch prizes and odds:
