Deep dive: patterns, clusters, and what stood out in NC Cash 5 – Feb 13, 2026

Low vs high numbers: a “two-zone” draw

This line basically packed a suitcase and traveled. You’ve got three low numbers (1, 7, 12) sitting in the basement, then two late runners (35, 37) up top. That split matters because many players unintentionally crowd the middle—birthdays, anniversaries, and other “calendar-number” habits keep picks under 31. This draw didn’t completely abandon the low zone, but it absolutely finished with a high-end punch.

The TrendPick AI Engine detected a clear two-cluster distribution: an early cluster (1–12) and a late cluster (35–37), with a big quiet gap through the teens and 20s. If you were hunting for a tight, consecutive-heavy line, Friday didn’t deliver that style—this was more of a “scatter and strike” look.

Consecutive numbers: close, but not a straight run

No full sequences, but the finish had a little spark: 35 and 37 are separated by just one number. That kind of near-consecutive pairing is common enough to watch, especially near the top of the board where players often hesitate to pick “too high.” It’s not a guarantee of anything next draw—just a reminder that the high 30s aren’t off-limits, even when the rest of the line starts small.

Odd-heavy energy: 4 odds, 1 even

Most draws feel “normal” when odd/even lands around 3/2 either way. Friday leaned harder: four odds (1, 7, 35, 37) and only one even (12). Is that rare? Not exactly. But it does create a sharper pattern signature, and it’s the kind of thing people remember—especially if they played a balanced grid and missed by one flip.

If you’re building picks for the next round, don’t overcorrect. Chasing yesterday’s odd-heavy outcome by forcing even-heavy lines can backfire because the odds don’t “owe” you a split. Still, using odd/even as a sanity check (instead of a rule) is a smart habit.

Sum check: 92 keeps it in the middle lane

The total sum of 92 is comfortably middle-of-the-road for a five-number draw. That’s notable because the line looks dramatic—tiny 1, then 37 at the end—but the overall math stays moderate. Translation: you got a wide spread without an extreme total.

Double Play comparison: steadier climb, higher ceiling

Double Play ran 2-8-17-31-41, which reads like a staircase with a rooftop finish. It’s still wide (2 to 41), but the steps are more evenly spaced than the main draw. Also, it’s less odd-tilted than the main result. If you played both, you saw two different personalities on the same night: the main draw clustered then jumped; Double Play climbed then launched.

Payouts, prize tiers, and claim tips (Cash 5) – Feb 13, 2026

Cash 5 payouts are handled by prize tier—the more numbers you match, the higher you climb. The top tier is matching all five. Lower tiers (like 4-of-5 or 3-of-5) can still be meaningful, especially for players who consistently play. If your prize is small, you’ll typically cash it at a retailer. If it’s larger, you may need to visit an official claim center with ID and the signed ticket.

One more thing players care about: the cash lump sum question. Some lottery games offer annuity vs lump sum choices for big jackpots. For Cash 5-style games, the top prize is commonly paid as a single jackpot amount, but always confirm the official rules for your draw date and ticket type before making plans.
