Carmen Jones of Bryson City took a chance on a $1 Cash 5 ticket and won a $110,000 jackpot.

Jones bought her lucky Quick Pick ticket for the Sept. 22 drawing from MAPCO on U.S. 19 South in Bryson City. The odds of matching all five balls are 1 in 962,598.

She claimed her prize Wednesday at lottery headquarters in Raleigh. After required federal and state tax withholdings, she took home $78,925.

Cash 5 is one of six lottery games in North Carolina where players have the option of buying tickets at a retail location or with Online Play through the lottery’s website or the NC Lottery Official Mobile App. Thursday’s jackpot is $376,000.

Will Cash5 Double Play be an option for online play? I mean if it’s an option for Powerball now, why not Cash5? I can understand why EZ play isn’t available but double play definitely should be considered for online play. Just a suggestion.NC Lottery
Hi there, Patricia! We've heard from a lot of our players that this is a feature they're interested in seeing, and we hope to be able to offer Cash 5 Double Play online in the future. The folks that make those decisions read these comments, so the future is full of possibilities!
