Understanding the Cash 4 Evening Winning Numbers and Play Options

The North Carolina Pick 4 is a popular lottery game offered by the North Carolina Lottery, with simple rules that make it easy to play. To win, players must match their numbers with those drawn in the evening drawing. In this article, we will explore the different types of plays available for Cash 4 Evening and how to increase your chances of winning.

There are five main types of plays: Pairs, Combo, 50/50, Any Order, and Exact. Each type of play offers a unique way to win cash prizes.

Pairs

In this type of play, the draw must match your first two or last two numbers in exact order. For example, if you choose the numbers 3-4-5-8, you can win by matching either the first two numbers (3-4) or the last two numbers (5-8).

Combo

This type of play generates an Exact play for all possible combinations of your four numbers. If the numbers are matched in exact order, you'll win both prizes. For instance, if you choose the numbers 1-2-3-4, a Combo play will generate six different combinations: (1-2-3-4), (1-2-4-3), (1-3-2-4), (1-3-4-2), (2-1-3-4), and (2-3-1-4).

50/50

This type of play is a combination of Exact and Any Order, meaning you'll win either way. It's a good option for those who want to cover both possibilities.

Any Order

In this type of play, the draw must match all four numbers in exact order, but the order they are drawn doesn't matter. For example, if you choose the numbers 1-2-3-4, you can win even if the numbers are drawn in a different order, such as (2-1-3-4).

Exact

This type of play is the most straightforward, where the draw must match your numbers in the exact order as picked. For instance, if you choose the numbers 1-2-3-4, you'll win only if the numbers are drawn in exactly that order.

Each play slip can contain up to five sets of numbers. After selecting your numbers, you must choose the type of play from the options above. You can either pick the numbers yourself or use the Quick Pick feature to select the numbers for you.
