AVERAGE
A typical $5 ticket, ranked #37 of the 53 active games we track in Arkansas.
Why
→Weak prize quality: relatively few of the bigger top and mid-tier prizes are still unclaimed.
  • Top-prize odds have worsened: 1 in 499 at launch, about 1 in 551 now. The $500 prizes are being claimed faster than tickets sell.
  • The prize pool is running thin, with most prizes already won.
  • Wins are infrequent: about a 26% chance to win something per ticket (1 in 3.84), lower than most games.

How fast it's selling

Over the last 4 weeks, about 0.2% of this game's prizes were reported claimed each week, well below the average for Arkansas's $5 games (1.4% a week). By tickets sold, it is still the estimated #40 best seller of the 47 Arkansas tickets we can rank, at about 3,600 tickets a week: a small share of a big print run is a lot of tickets.

From ScratchCheck's daily record of the lottery's published prize counts. Dates are when a claim first appeared in those counts, and small prizes are often cashed days after purchase, so claims trail actual sales.
