Numbers and Win 4 odds are for a straight play (exact order). Ticket sales close shortly before each draw; check the New York Lottery for cut-off times and current jackpots. For the odds of every prize level, use the lottery odds calculator.

Which NY Lottery Game Should You Play?

It depends on what you are after. Take 5 has by far the best jackpot odds of any New York game - about 500 times better than Powerball - with a smaller top prize. Numbers and Win 4 are daily digit games with fixed prizes and simple odds. NY Lotto is the state's own jackpot game, and Powerball and Mega Millions offer the giant multi-state jackpots with the longest odds.

Whatever you play, a random quick pick has exactly the same chance as numbers you choose yourself. Its only advantage is avoiding the birthdays and patterns other players pick, so a jackpot is less likely to be shared.

How NY Lottery Number Generation Works

Each game's numbers come from our lottery API with that game's official format, using cryptographically secure random number generation. Pool games draw unique numbers; digit games (Numbers, Win 4) allow repeated digits and keep their order.

Do I get a Bonus number for NY Lotto? ▶
No - in NY Lotto you pick 6 numbers, and the Bonus number is drawn by the lottery for the second prize. That is why the generator gives you 6 numbers.
Can I play these numbers outside New York? ▶
You must be physically in New York State to buy New York Lottery tickets. Powerball and Mega Millions are also sold in most other US states, where you can play the same numbers.
