Ehab Mayy of Charlotte tried his luck on a $1 Cash 5 ticket and won a $742,366 jackpot.

Mayy bought his Quick Pick ticket using Online Play. His numbers matched all five white balls in the July 7 drawing.

Cash 5 is one of six lottery games in North Carolina where players have the option of buying their tickets through a retail location or with Online Play. The odds of winning a Cash 5 jackpot are 1 in 962,598. Monday’s jackpot is $224,000.

NCEL, why not help TARA W. with a scholarship for her son. Isn't that the goal of this lottery?

Lasharla B, I feel you girl! I've been playing that long also. Won several small amounts, but never the lower tiers or the jackpot. I have special numbers I play all the time, if I stop playing, I'm afraid that they will be drawn. That's what keep me playing. Good luck to you!

Congratulations God is Good. I feel the same way Lasharla haven't had no big hit. Right about now I wish I could hit just enough to pay my son tuition cause he wants to attend college and I feel like I'm letting him down cause I don't have the money. I just don't want my son to be a wasted talent. He plays football. Everyone have a bless day

I'm stopping because 15 years playing and can't win I could have done better with my money! Over it!
