A lottery (or lotto) is a form of gambling that involves the drawing of numbers at random for a prize. Some governments outlaw lotteries, while others endorse it to the extent of organizing a national or state lottery. It is common to find som ...
games in which five regular numbers are drawn from a larger set of numbers. The list includes the name, the number field for each, and the frequency of drawings. All pick-5 games in the U.S. and Canada are drawn multiple times per week(usually nightly, including Sundays and holidays); some lotteries now hold such drawings more than once a day.
Most U.S. pick-5 games now have a

A progressive jackpot is a jackpot (a gambling grand prize or payout) which increases each time the game is played but the jackpot is ''not'' won. When the progressive jackpot is won, the jackpot for the next play is reset to a predetermined value ...

A common top prize in non-jackpot pick-5 games is $100,000(In the lists below, games with a jackpot do not have a minimum jackpot listed.). Depending on the game, a minimum of either two or three numbers(not counting a "bonus ball") must be matched for a winning ticket(A 2/5 match usually results in a free play for that game, or a "break-even" win; for the latter, the player wins back their stake on that particular five-number wager.).

With very few exceptions, all U.S. and Canadian games where five regular numbers are drawn from the same pool have had a

Except where noted, all current pick-5 games listed here cost $1 per play. Some pick-5 games have introduced an add-on wager, usually $1, either as an "instant match" feature, as a multiplier, or, as in the additional 50-cent Connecticut Cash 5 wager ''Kicker'', to give a player additional prize levels.

The lists do not include "4+1" games, such as Florida's ''Lucky Money'', where all five numbers must be matched to win the top prize, but are drawn from two number fields(A similar game,
