New York Take 5 prizes and odds

A New York Take 5 play costs $1. Prizes marked “est.” are pari-mutuel: a share of a prize pool split between that night's winners, so the lottery prints an estimate rather than a fixed amount. Overall odds of winning a prize: 1 in 8.8.

MatchPrizeOdds
5 of 5 (top prize) about $57,575.70 (est.) 1 in 575,757
4 of 5 about $508.02 (est.) 1 in 3,387
3 of 5 about $25.66 (est.) 1 in 102.6
2 of 5 Free Quick Pick play 1 in 9.6

Half of every draw's sales is prize money, shared 20% / 30% / 50% between the 5-, 4- and 3-number winners. The top prize does not roll over: when nobody matches all five, its share goes to that draw's 4-number winners.

Instant Win ($1 more per play): Instant Win numbers are printed on your ticket; match one with your own numbers to win the amount shown on the spot. It is not decided by the draw, and the play stays in the draw as usual.

Prizes from the game page, odds and prizes on nylottery.ny.gov, read October 18, 2026. Odds are computed from the game's number pool and checked against the lottery's printed figures. The lottery's own rules decide every claim.
