WHAT IS 5 CARD CASHTM? 5 Card Cash is two terminal games in one offered by the Maryland Lottery®. It is based on a standard poker game using a 52 card playing deck and combines the excitement of an instant win feature with the fun of a daily evening drawing. Each Ticket has a chance to win up to two times — as an Instant Win and in the Daily Drawing.

Ticket Cost: $2 per play

HOW TO PLAYThere is no playslip! Just ask your retailer for a 5 Card Cash Ticket, and you will receive a $2 Ticket featuring five (5) randomly selected cards from a standard deck of 52 playing cards.

Instant Win: If your Ticket shows a Poker Hand of a pair of Jacks or better, you instantly win the prize for that hand.

You can cash in your Ticket immediately and get an exchange Ticket with the same cards to hold for the evening daily drawing. Or you can wait until after the daily drawing to cash your Ticket.

Daily Drawing: Each evening, seven (7) days a week, the Lottery will draw 5 cards from a standard 52 card deck. You win by matching 2, 3, 4 or 5 of the randomly drawn cards.

5 Card Cash Tickets CANNOT be cancelled or voided after they’ve been processed.

TWO WAYS TO WIN ON ONE TICKET1) Instant Win: You win if the Poker Hand on your Ticket shows a pair of Jacks or better.

2) Daily Drawing: Each day, the Lottery will randomly draw 5 cards out of a standard 52 card playing deck. You win if your Ticket matches at least 2 of the 5 cards.

The approximate overall probability of winning an Instant Win prize is 1 in 5.
