To kick off 2026, the Texas Lottery has released a new series of tickets. The new series is X The Cash family of scratch tickets, which also features second-chance drawings. The second chance drawing will feature VIP trips to a music festival in Las Vegas and a chance to participate in the Xtreme Cash Challenge. The new tickets come in $3, $5, $10, and $20 denominations.

Here is a list of the new Texas Lottery games.

  • 200X The Cash ($20)
  • 100X The Cash ($10):
  • 50X The Cash ($5)
  • 30X The Cash Word Search ($3)

As always, I like to break down the numbers and give you the odds of winning prizes for Texas Lottery games. Today, we will break down the odds for the $5 50X Cash.

Here are the odds of winning any prize on the 50X Cash.

Every book of 50X Cash contains 75 tickets, which means each book costs $375 and has a guaranteed payout of $220, which is on the higher side of guaranteed payouts for a $5 book. As always, the tickets play in favor of the Texas Lottery unless you find that lucky book. That's why they call it the lottery.
Overall odds of winning any prize in 50X Cash are 1 in 4.13. Below is a more detailed breakdown of the odds. There are currently 4 top-prize tickets  of $200,000. The most I have won on this ticket is $50 so far.
