Lotto is one of the most popular lottery games in the state, with draws taking place twice a week. You pick six numbers from 1 to 59 to take part, and win prizes for matching three or more. The jackpot keeps growing if it is not won and regularly climbs into the tens of millions of dollars.
About Lotto (NY)Take 5 is a twice-daily draw game that offers great prizes seven days a week! The Midday drawing is held at 2:30 PM EST every day, followed by the Evening drawing at 10:30 PM EST every night. Tickets cost just $1 per play. All you need to do is select five numbers from 1 to 39 and fill out a playcard.
About Take 5Win 4 draws are held twice every day, and you just need to pick four numbers from 0 to 9 to take part. You can select your own numbers or ask for a Quick Pick if you would prefer a random selection, then choose from a variety of different play types to try and win cash prizes.
About Win 4The Numbers game is played twice a day, at midday and in the evening. You just need to select three numbers from 0 to 9 to take part, but there are a lot of options for different play types depending on whether you want to go in search of big cash prizes or favor better odds.
About NumbersPick 10 is a daily drawing with a top prize of $500,000! Simply choose 10 numbers from 1 to 80 and wait for the draw. There are 20 numbers selected in a draw and you can win a prize by matching six or more of them, or even if you get none at all!
About Pick 10New York Lottery players have enjoyed some incredible paydays over the years. The Empire State has been the scene of many huge wins for multi-state lotteries Powerball and Mega Millions, while NY’s flagship Lotto game also gives away far larger prizes than most other single-state draws. Here are some of the biggest wins.
In the spring of 2023, Johnnie Taylor from Howard Beach in Queens ended a run of 20 consecutive Mega Millions draws without a winner when he managed to match all the numbers with a ticket bought at Liberty Beer & Convenience in Ozone Park. Taylor, a 71-year-old retired handyman, chose the lump sum of $253 million and said he would travel, buy a new home, donate to his local church and replace his 2012 Prius with a newer model hybrid vehicle.
The biggest Powerball prize paid out in New York went to Robert Bailey, a retired federal government employee. He split a $687 million jackpot with someone from Iowa after buying his lucky ticket from a deli in Harlem. Bailey had played the same numbers for 25 years and insisted he would carry on playing the lottery, while he would also ‘give back to Manhattan’, travel to Las Vegas and the Caribbean. He took the cash option of $198 million.
A one-time ‘Super Lotto’ draw was held to boost the jackpot to $90 million, with the preceding Wednesday draw even being cancelled to ramp up excitement and ticket sales. Nine players ended up splitting the prize, landing $10 million each. The winning tickets were sold in Manhattan (2), Brooklyn, the Bronx, Queens, Yonkers, Rockland County (2) and Suffolk County. It smashed the record for the largest Lotto win in history and has remained intact for more than 30 years.
If you win a prize in New York, you will need to claim it within one year of the drawing date or the game closure if it’s a scratch-off.
You cannot officially stay anonymous as a big winner, but you may claim via an LLC to shield your identity. Keep in mind that New York has the highest rate of tax of any state in the U.S., with additional local withholdings for residents in some locations such as New York City or Yonkers.
There are a few ways to claim your prize, but your options depend on how much you’ve won. You’ll always need the original ticket and should sign it to show it belongs to you. You won’t be able to claim a prize on a lost ticket.
Claim your prize from any NY Lottery retailer, customer service center or prize claim center. Alternatively, you can mail in your winning ticket.
You’ll need a claim form for prizes of $600 or more, as well as a valid government-issued ID such as a driver’s license or passport, and your Social Security number. You can claim by mail or by visiting a customer service center or prize claim center.
To claim a prize by mail, send your winning ticket and claim form to the following address. Make sure to fill in the back of the ticket and include a return address. Using registered mail is recommended:
