Chad Welch of Mooresville took a chance on a $1 Cash 5 ticket and won a $324,564 jackpot.

Welch bought his lucky Quick Pick ticket using Online Play. His ticket matched all five numbers in the Oct. 6 drawing to win the jackpot. Welch won half of the $649,128 total jackpot after another ticket also matched all five numbers. The odds of matching all five balls are 1 in 962,598.

He claimed his prize at lottery headquarters Thursday and, after required federal and state tax withholdings, took home $232,878.

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 the NC Lottery Official Mobile App. Thursday’s jackpot is $100,000.

Hi, Kaye! If you purchased a ticket through Online Play, you'll receive an email notifying you if you win, and that email will include instructions on how to claim your prize. Prizes under $600 will automatically be added to your account balance for you to withdraw. You can check on past tickets under "My Account" and "Past Draws". Hope this helps!
