NEW JERSEY (PIX11) -- Second chances are rare, but on Wednesday the New Jersey Lottery will be giving all Jersey Cash 5 tickets a second shot.
It is the lottery’s latest promotional installment called “Winning Wednesday.” There is no extra cost to players.
Here’s how New Jersey Lottery’s Winning Wednesday promotion works:
After the regular Jersey Cash 5 drawing on Wednesday, a second set of Jersey Cash 5 numbers and a second XTRA number will be drawn. All players with a Cash 5 ticket have a second chance to win the top prize jackpot of $100,000.
Players will also be eligible to win secondary prizes.
