Overview
Easy 5 is Louisiana’s game with the best overall odds of any draw game: pick five numbers from 1–37 for $1 per play. The cash jackpot starts at $50,000 and grows until someone matches all five. Drawings are Wednesday and Saturday at 9:59 p.m. CT.
How to play — step by step

Choose 5 numbers from 1 to 37, or mark Quick Pick and let the terminal choose.
