Arkansas-exclusive draw games are on the rise for this weekend’s drawings.

Saturday night’s LOTTO jackpot is $578,000.

LOTTO is a draw game that is played and won only in Arkansas. Previous jackpot winners include a Yell County resident who claimed a record-setting $5.123 million jackpot earlier this year and a Sebastian County resident who claimed $2.338 million.

LOTTO drawings occur on Wednesdays and Saturdays at 9 p.m. Six numbers between 1 and 40 and a Bonus Number are drawn. A LOTTO player must match the first six numbers drawn in any order to win the jackpot. Alternate prizes up to $25,000 are available for players who match three or more winning numbers, with or without the Bonus Number.

Once the jackpot is won, it resets to $250,000 and increases with each subsequent drawing. If more than one jackpot-winning ticket is sold, it is split evenly among the jackpot winners.

LOTTO tickets cost $2 per play, and ticket sales cut off at 8:59 p.m. the night of the drawing.

The jackpot for another Arkansas-exclusive draw game, Natural State Jackpot (NSJ), is $360,000 for tonight’s drawing.

NSJ drawings occur daily at 8 p.m. Five numbers between 1 and 39 are drawn. An NSJ player must match all five numbers to win the jackpot. Once hit, the NSJ jackpot will reset to $50,000, then increase by $5,000 until it reaches $100,000. After that, it increases by $10,000 with each draw.

NSJ tickets cost $1 per play, and ticket sales cut off at 7:59 p.m.

LOTTO and NSJ tickets are available at licensed Arkansas lottery retailers and through retailer apps from ASL’s Play on the Go partners. Visit the Where To Play page on the ASL website to learn more about the Play on the Go options.
