History and Overview
The DC-5 Lotto is a popular daily lottery game run by the DC Lottery in Washington, D.C. It offers players two chances to win each day, with a midday draw at 1:50 PM and an evening draw at 7:50 PM. Introduced as part of DC Lottery’s suite of daily games, DC-5 gives players the opportunity to win big by selecting a 5-digit number, with multiple wager types providing a variety of ways to win. This makes DC-5 attractive to those who enjoy both straightforward and complex betting options.
How to Play
Playing the DC-5 Lotto is simple, but players can choose from various wager types for different odds and payouts.
Choose Your Numbers:
- Players select five digits from 0 to 9, allowing for number combinations ranging from 00000 to 99999.

- Straight: Win by matching the numbers in the exact order they are drawn.
- Box: Win by matching the numbers in any order. Different Box types offer different odds:
