The most- and least-drawn Ohio Pick 5 digits across the 15 most recent draws. “Hot” and “cold” describe what has already happened; they don’t make a number more or less likely next time.

Ohio Pick 5 hot and cold are position by position: a digit can be frequent at one of the five slots and rare at another. Drawn twice a day, each position is its own 0 to 9 draw, so the rows below give the hottest and coldest digit at each position.

Five positions, not one pool

In a pool game like Rolling Cash 5, five numbers come from one shared set, so a number's frequency has a single answer. Pick 5 works the other way: a digit can land in any of five positions, and frequency lives per position. The 8 that runs hot in the first slot is a separate count from the 8 in the fifth, which is why the rows above give each position on its own.

Midday and evening, read apart

Ohio draws Pick 5 twice a day, and the midday and evening draws are independent. Neither is luckier, and a run in one says nothing about the other. With five independent positions, each drawing one digit from ten, a cold digit is not owed a turn in any of them, and a hot one is not warmed up.

Questions people ask

Is a hot Pick 5 digit a stronger choice?
No choice is stronger on frequency alone. Each of the five positions is drawn independently, so a digit that has appeared often lately is no more likely to appear next. Hot and cold describe the past.
Can the same Pick 5 digit be hot and cold?
Yes, at different positions. Across the same draws a digit can be frequent at one position and rare at another, which is why the hot and cold digit is reported for each of the five positions.
Are the Pick 5 midday and evening draws related?
No. Ohio draws Pick 5 twice a day and the two draws are fully independent. Neither is luckier, and a streak in one says nothing about the other.
