Pick 6 delivered a notably even-heavy lineup, then Double Play followed with a tight cluster of 20s and low 30s—exactly the kind of shape that sparks “I was one ball away!” stories at breakfast.

New Jersey Lottery Daily pattern watch – Cash 5 & Pick 6 (Feb. 16, 2026)

If you’re the kind of player who tracks shapes, clusters, and repeat hits, Monday’s draws offered a little drama. Not the soap-opera kind. The “stare at your ticket twice” kind.

Repeat number spotlight: 37 shows up twice

The **TrendPick AI Engine** detected a cross-game repeat: 37 landed in both Cash 5 and Pick 6. That doesn’t change the odds for the next draw—lottery balls don’t have memory—but it’s the kind of coincidence that makes a “lucky ticket” feel even luckier when it happens to be in your hand.

Low vs. high number distribution

Cash 5 tilted upward: three of the five numbers are 17 or higher, and two are way up in the 30s/40s (37 and 45). That’s a classic “finish strong” look where the back end does the heavy lifting.

Pick 6 also trended higher after an early start. It opened with 4 and 12, then climbed steadily into the 20s, 30s, and 40s, topping out at 42. If you like a ladder effect, this was close—though not perfectly consecutive.

Consecutive numbers and tight clusters

Main Pick 6 had no true consecutive pairs, but it did pack a tight late cluster: 37-39-42 keeps attention in the high range. Meanwhile, Double Play was the night’s cluster king: 20-21 appears back-to-back, then 31-32 follows suit. That’s two consecutive pairs in one auxiliary draw—rare enough to feel like lightning, common enough to remain totally random.

Odd/even behavior: two different personalities

Cash 5 came in odd-heavy (4 odd, 1 even). Pick 6 flipped the script at even-heavy (4 even, 2 odd). That contrast matters for pattern watchers building a “mix” strategy—because if you were expecting symmetry across games, Monday didn’t cooperate.

Jackpot talk: big numbers, careful language

Here’s what we can say with confidence from the feed: the jackpots are listed at $160,000 (Cash 5) and a potentially bankroll-bending $2.9 million (Pick 6). What we cannot confirm here is whether anyone matched the top prize tier, whether the prize will be paid as a cash lump sum option (where applicable), or whether the next jackpot will surge. For final word, always check the official NJ Lottery postings and any updates from the claim center.

How to use this data for the next draw (without fooling yourself)

Let’s be real: no pattern guarantees a win. But patterns can help you avoid repetitive picks and build variety—especially if you’re choosing numbers instead of using Quick Pick. Try rotating between low-heavy and high-heavy selections, and consider whether you want to “ride” hot-feeling zones like the 30s/40s that showed up big tonight.

Analyze your strategy for the next draw with TrendPick AI for these games on NichebrAI, including the dedicated New Jersey pages for Pick 6 and Cash 5. If you also play beyond the Garden State, you can compare pattern dashboards like Powerball or Mega Millions to see how number spreads behave across different formats.

One last reminder before you check those tickets: odds don’t bend for anybody. But smart bankroll management? That’s a strategy you can actually control.
