How to Play Fantasy 5

 

Michigan Lottery players can purchase tickets online or in lottery retailers. Whichever method you choose to purchase, you will need to choose five numbers that span between one and 39.

 

Double Play is a feature to consider on your ticket that might earn you additional winning opportunities. The feature will reuse the same numbers you currently have for a second drawing, which is worth another dollar. If you can match all five numbers, the jackpot for this feature is $110,000.

 

The second additional feature is called EZmatch, which also costs an extra dollar. A number will be printed on your ticket at the time of your purchase whenever you choose this feature, but it must match the numbers drawn in order to win prizes. The prizes for this feature will vary up to $500.

 

Odds, Price, and Prizes for Fantasy 5

 

The odds for Fantasy 5 are not terrible, but they could be better, coming in at one in nine. Tickets will have various winning opportunities depending on what players decide to add, which slightly changes the odds. EZmatch has the best opportunity to win a prize at one in five.

 

Purchasing another ticket can slightly improve your odds, which could help you win the jackpot at odds of one in 575,757. Each additional feature costs a dollar, so this will mean a budget might need to be in mind.

 

Regular prizes for the main draw are $1, $10, $100, and the current jackpot at the time of your purchase. Double Play shows the same odds, but the prize amounts have been doubled ($2, $20, $200).

 

EZmatch prizes and odds are as follows:
