New Jersey Lottery Daily deep dive – Cash 5 & Pick 6 patterns (Feb. 4, 2026)

Let’s talk about what jumps off the screen for anyone hunting life-changing money: repetition, coverage, and where the draw “lives” on the number line. Tonight’s story is all about anchors—small numbers that keep showing up—and a steady march into the higher bands that keeps long-shot dreamers alive.

The TrendPick AI Engine detected a strong “shared-number backbone” between games, led by 2 and 22. Cash 5 landed on 2 and 22, and Pick 6 also featured 2 and 22—two repeats across separate draws that will have pattern-watchers buzzing, even though every drawing is independent and the odds never change.

Cash 5 distribution check: low start, mid finish

Cash 5 opened with a low duo (2, 6), then stepped into the 20s (22, 25, 29). No consecutive numbers showed up, which tends to “feel” unusual to some players—but in reality, it’s just another normal outcome in a game where randomness doesn’t care about our instincts. The range of 27 (from 2 to 29) is moderate, meaning the draw wasn’t tightly clustered and wasn’t extreme, either.

Stat-heads will note the sum of 84, a comfortable middle-of-the-road total. And that odd/even mix—2 odd, 3 even—is about as standard as it gets. If you’re someone who plays quick picks, this looks like the kind of draw that doesn’t scream “rare,” it whispers “typical.”

Pick 6 spotlight: even-heavy and stretched wide

Pick 6 brought a more dramatic spread: 2-8-10-22-35-43 spans a hefty 41 points. That’s wide coverage, and it matters to players who like to see both low and high zones represented—especially when you’re chasing a $2.3 million jackpot and imagining the cash lump sum option after taxes.

The draw leaned even: four evens (2, 8, 10, 22) against two odds (35, 43). That’s not “crazy,” but it is a noticeable tilt. The sum of 120 is also in a normal band for a six-number set—again, nothing that suggests a wild outlier night.

Double Play twist: the “2” strikes again

If you added Double Play, here’s the headline inside the headline: 2 shows up again. That’s the kind of recurring digit that makes players swear the universe is sending signals. Reality check: it’s still probability at work. But if your ticket has that 2 baked in across plays, you’re definitely paying closer attention tonight.

New Jersey Lottery Daily payout info – prize tiers, odds, and claiming tips (Feb. 4, 2026)

Here’s the part that turns a slip of paper into a moment: understanding prize tiers. Even if you didn’t nail the jackpot, matching fewer numbers can still land you a payout depending on the game rules and add-ons. Check your ticket carefully, and always verify the exact prize amounts through official NJ Lottery channels, because payouts can vary by tier and jackpot conditions.

On the practical side: sign the back of your ticket, keep it safe, and don’t wait until the last minute. If you’ve got a bigger win, you may need to visit a claim center and bring proper identification. And if you’re lucky enough to hit a top prize, you’ll likely face a decision that players debate forever: annuity versus cash lump sum. That choice can change your financial future—so take your time and consider professional advice.
