Nelson Edwards of Thomasville tried his luck on a $1 Cash 5 ticket on Tuesday and won a $230,858 jackpot.

Edwards bought his lucky Quick Pick ticket from Speed Mart on Hasty School Road in Thomasville. His ticket matched all five numbers in the drawing to win the jackpot. The odds of matching numbers on all five balls are 1 in 962,598.

He claimed his prize at lottery headquarters Wednesday and, after required federal and state tax withholdings, took home $165,064.

Cash 5 is one of six lottery games in North Carolina where players have the option of buying their tickets at a retail location or with Online Play through the lottery’s website or with the NC Lottery Official Mobile App. Wednesday’s jackpot is $100,000.

I have a question about the QUAD 1’s how is it that this number sells out in the store very early by 830am most of the time but you go online to play it & it goes thru ?? Can somsomeone explain that to me pleaseNC Lottery
Hi, Maiya! There are different liability limits for tickets sold at retailers versus Online Play purchases, so a number may be "blocked" online but available in store, or vice versa!
