How to Play Cash Five ®

You can win exciting CASH prizes just by matching 2, 3, 4, or 5 numbers from a field of 37.

All prizes are paid in one lump-sum payment, even the top prize. Winning has never been so much fun! And, you can win six times a week. Drawings are held Monday through Saturday at 10:12 p.m, CST. Ticket sales are not available during Draw Break, from 10:00 - 10:15 p.m.

How to Play

Pick up a playslip from your favorite Texas Lottery retail location. The playslip has five playboards (A, B, C, D, and E). You may play 1, 2, 3, 4, or all 5 playboards. Each playboard costs $1.

Select five (5) numbers from 1 to 37 in each playboard. Or, if you prefer, you can have the terminal pick your numbers. Just mark the "QP" (Quick Pick) box in each playboard you want to play, or ask your retailer for a Cash Five Quick Pick. It's that easy!

How to Mark the Playslip

 

Mark five numbers on a playboard, using a blue or black pen or pencil.
(Mechanically completed playslips are not permitted and are void.)

Void Box

If you make a mistake on the playboard, don't erase it. Just mark the 'VOID' box.

Quick Pick

Mark the "QP" box if you want the computer to pick your numbers for you.

Multi-Draw

For added convenience, you can play your Cash Five numbers for up to 12 drawings. Under "Multi-Draw" mark the appropriate box. This will play your numbers indicated on playboards "A" through "E" for the number of drawings you select. Multi-Draw may be combined with the Advance Play feature. Each play costs $1.

Advance Play

You can choose what day you want to start playing your Cash Five numbers. You can choose any of the five drawings immediately following the current draw. Mark M for Monday, T for Tuesday, W for Wednesday, Th for Thursday, F for Friday or S for Saturday. You can choose only one day.

If no one correctly matches all five numbers to win the 1st or 5-of-5 prize, the money set aside to pay the 1st prize will roll down to the 4-of-5 prize. The 4-of-5 prize will increase accordingly.
