The short answer. Georgia Fantasy 5 draws five numbers from 1 to 42 every night at
11:34 PM Eastern, the latest draw time on this site. There is no bonus ball and order is irrelevant, so one
line matching all five is a 1 in 850,668 chance. It is not the Florida or the
California Fantasy 5, and the three are never checked against each other.
How does Georgia Fantasy 5 work?
Five balls are drawn from a set numbered 1 to 42 and none is returned, so a result never repeats a number. Your
line is five numbers from the same range and it is measured only on how many of them appear in the draw, in any
arrangement. Nothing else sits on the ticket: no second pool, no extra ball, no add-on. One draw a night, every
night, which makes it about as plain as a lottery gets.

Which Fantasy 5 is this one?
Three American state lotteries run a game under the Fantasy 5 name, and none of them is related to the others.
We publish all of them, which is why every listing on this site carries the state in the title. The three differ
in the one place it matters most, the size of the pool.

There is a quick way to tell the tickets apart without reading the small print. Georgia draws from the widest
range of the three, so any number above 39 on a Fantasy 5 line could only have
come from Georgia. Below that the ranges overlap and the printed game name is the only reliable answer, which is
why our Florida Fantasy 5 guide and
California Fantasy 5 guide are kept as separate pages rather than
one article about a name.
What are the odds of winning Georgia Fantasy 5?
Georgia Fantasy 5 top-prize odds: there are 850,668 ways to choose 5 numbers from 1–42, so matching all of them with one line is 1 in 850,668. This is arithmetic on the game’s format, not a claim about any draw.
That figure will look familiar to anyone in the UAE. It is the same number as
FAST 5, because that game also draws five numbers from forty-two and the arithmetic cannot tell the two
apart. Identical odds say nothing about the draws themselves, the prizes or the operators; they are a property of
the shape, and two games built to the same shape share them however far apart they sit.
Among the six state games we gather on one hub, this is the shortest set of top-prize odds, and it is shorter
than any of the six-number games there by a wide margin. That is not a recommendation. A shorter route to the top
prize goes with a smaller prize fund behind it, and what each match is worth is set by the Georgia Lottery and
published there, so we leave those figures where they belong.
Why 11:34 PM Eastern is the last draw of the American night
No game we publish draws later. By the time the Georgia balls come out, the multi-state jackpots have been drawn,
the Florida and Texas evening games are done and the state draws are finished. A Georgia result is therefore the
signal that an American lottery night is complete, which turns out to be genuinely useful if you check several
games in one sitting.

Converted for 28 October 2026. US clocks change in March and November, which moves every US draw by an hour against the Gulf and India; this table is recalculated every time the page loads.
In the Gulf
The whole American evening arrives while the UAE sleeps, and Georgia closes it. Wait for this one and everything
else is already there, so a single check covers the night instead of three visits to three pages.
In India and Pakistan
The gap is ninety minutes further on, so the Georgia result tends to land mid-morning rather than at breakfast.
A reader in Kochi or Karachi looking before work will often find the earlier American draws published and this
one still to come.
On the ticket
A draw this late in the US evening is already the next day almost everywhere else, so the calendar date where
you are has moved on before the numbers exist. The result is filed under the Georgia date, which is the date
printed on the ticket, and that is the one to search for.
How the rest of the American schedule falls across your day, and how the US clock change in March and November
moves all of it by an hour, is set out in our guide to
US lottery draw times in India and the UAE. At the other end
of the same evening sits Pennsylvania Cash 5, the earliest draw we
carry, which is why the two appear together in the table above.
How do I check a Georgia Fantasy 5 ticket?
- Check the game name on the ticket first. If it says Georgia, the Florida and California results are the wrong
page, however similar the numbers look.
- Read the draw date beside it, and do not adjust it for your own time zone.
- Find that date on the Georgia Fantasy 5 results page, where the
recorded draws run newest first.
- Count how many of your five numbers appear in that night's result. Order never matters.
- Score each line on its own; two lines never add together.
- Confirm anything that looks like a win with the Georgia Lottery or an authorised retailer before acting on it.
Does a nightly archive make the next draw readable?
A game that draws 365 times a year builds a long record quickly, and a long record is exactly where people start
seeing shapes. The trouble is that the balls have no access to the record. Each night begins with the same
forty-two, drawn independently of every night before it, so a number absent for weeks is not due and a repeat
from yesterday is not a streak. We keep the frequency counts on our
lucky numbers page because they are interesting, and we publish the test we ran
against past draws beside them, which found our own scoring no better than chance.
If you would rather be told than go looking, the bell on the game page sends one notification when a new Georgia
Fantasy 5 draw is recorded and nothing else. Given when this draw happens, that alert is usually waiting by the
time a reader in the Gulf wakes up. The other five games we group with it are on the
US State Lottery results hub, and the wider picture of following American
draws from here is in checking US lottery results from the UAE.
Results only. We record each Georgia Fantasy 5 draw after it is published and keep it in a dated archive.
We do not sell tickets, we are not the Georgia Lottery, and a result shown here is not confirmation of a prize.
Prices, prize tiers, claim periods and who may take part are the operator's to set and depend on where you are.
