Cash4Life is a multi-state game that also offers an awesome second prize of $1,000 per week for life, and nine ways to win in total. Drawings will be held every night at 8:00 PM CT. Ticket sales stop every day from 2:00-5:00 AM and from 7:45-8:00 PM.

"Our players love the idea of winning a prize that pays for a lifetime, and this $2 game delivers that chance every single night," said May Scheve Reardon, executive director of the Missouri Lottery.

"Cash4Life has exceptional upper-level prizes, and it offers great overall chances of 1 in 8 for winning across all prize levels.

"Cash4Life is also our first multi-state game to offer EZ Match," she noted. The EZ Match instant win add-on is already a player favorite for in-state games Lotto, Pick 3, Pick 4, and Show Me Cash. "It's something I think players will enjoy with Cash4Life, too," Reardon added.

The Missouri Lottery recently discontinued Lucky for Life, a similar multi-state game, which had its last MO draw on April 8.

How to Play Cash4Life

To play, just choose five white ball numbers from 1 to 60, plus a green Cash Ball number from 1 to 4 - or select Quick Pick and the lottery terminal will generate your numbers. You can play up to 14 consecutive draws with the Multi-Draw option.

The EZ Match add-on costs an extra $1 and delivers the excitement of an instant win cash prize of up to $500 without waiting for the draw. Simply check the EZ Match box and five additional numbers will print on your ticket below the main game picks.

If any of your EZ Match numbers matches any of the five white ball Cash4Life numbers on your ticket, you win the prize printed beside the EZ Match number - and you can still win again in the main game draw.

Next, wait for the Cash4Life draw at 8:00 PM. Match all six numbers drawn to win the first prize, or the five white ball numbers to take home the second prize. Check the table below to see all the payouts and chances of winning:
