A wave of winners struck in the Cash5 lottery on Thursday, July 24, as five lucky tickets matched all five numbers, splitting the jackpot. While the top prize is typically $100,000, the prize was adjusted to $33,918 due to the number of winners.
The winning numbers were 1-2-12-21-22, and those who matched all five numbers in the drawing shared the prize pool. With multiple jackpot winners, the prize was reduced from the usual amount.
In addition to the jackpot winners, 26 players matched four numbers, each receiving a share of a $102 prize pool. Another 741 players matched three numbers, splitting a smaller pool of $3. Unfortunately, no one matched the Kicker number, which would have resulted in a $4,350 prize.
In total, 3,012 winning tickets were sold for the Thursday draw. This marks the second consecutive day of significant wins, following a $100,000 jackpot win on Wednesday, July 23, where the winning numbers were 4-8-14-21-30.
The odds of winning the top prize in Cash5 are 1 in 324,632, and the jackpot amounts fluctuate based on ticket sales, with daily drawings held in Connecticut.
