How to Play Rolling Cash 5?

Rolling Cash 5 is one of the simplest lottery games where both experienced and amateur players can freely participate without any difficulties. Each play or wager costs a dollar and gives the players the opportunity to choose 5 out of a range of 39 numbers. When choosing the lucky numbers, players can either settle for their own preferred winning number combination which may be based on previous plays, or simply an intuition-based subjective selection. For amateurs and experienced players which may not have much time or the will to engage their own subjective selection, they can use the Auto Pick feature which involves a computer-generated set of numbers.

When the players have picked the numbers successfully, they may either place their wagers using a bet card or give the number combination to the retailer. Each bet card has 5 play areas and gives an opportunity for 5 Auto Picks. For players who may want to enter multiple draws either for convenience or otherwise, Rolling Cash 5 gives an opportunity for multi-draw boxes. You can play up to 14 subsequent draws.

“Play It Again” Feature

This feature, which is part of many Ohio lottery online games was added to give the players convenience as it eliminates the need for a new bet card. Through this feature, retailers can reproduce a player’s wager without having to manually enter the numbers. Normally, a second bar code is printed on each ticket just above the logo and this allows a retailer to scan the ticket using a 2D reader and straightaway duplicate the exact wager information for the next draw.

The “Play It Feature” comes at no additional charge and the player simply pays for the cost of the duplicated ticket only.
