Natural State Jackpot

Natural State Jackpot is an Arkansas Lottery original game with a jackpot that starts at $50,000 and rolls over and increases in value by $5,000 each time a drawing passes without a jackpot winner. When the top prize reaches $100,000, it will grow by $10,000 per draw until someone wins it.

Drawings are held every evening at 8:00 PM CST in Little Rock. Ticket sales are paused one minute beforehand, at 7:59 PM, and resume after the draw.


How to Play

To play, choose five numbers from 1 to 39. Numbers can also be randomly generated if you mark the "Quick Pick" box on your playslip. The odds of winning are the same whether you select your own numbers or choose Quick Pick. Select up to five plays per playslip (panels marked A to E). It costs $1 per play.

To play your numbers for up to 20 draws in a row, mark the number of draws, from 2 to 20, in the Multi Draw area of the playslip, or ask the retailer for the number of draws you'd like. Multi Draws start from the next available draw and cannot be skipped.
