Arkansa what you also need to put please if you are reading this is 30 dollars scratchoffs and 20 dollars scratchoffs...Let the 30 dollar scratchoff pay 1 million for life just like Massachussetts have its billion dollar blockbuster scratchoff, but instead you take 20 or 25 million dollars you place it in the bank and this way you can have a lot of them....And with the 20 dollar scratchoff you give away 10,000 dollars a week for life just like New York Win for Life Spectacular....Arkansa please listen you need this... 

What Arkansa needs is to Place Washington State Match4, Florida MegaMoney (pick5), Pick6 you put Win For Life, and for lotto you put a regular lotto that pays million from 1 to 54, and West Virginia's Cash25 or Virginia's Cash5 even though i am in favor of West Virginia's Cash25 and PIck3.....NOW THAT'S THE BEST DEAL FOR ANY STATE...THAT'S THE BEST DEAL ANY STATE CAN GET...

More and more states will dump the traditional pick four for the WA state style pick four. It has to due to the large payouts with numbers like 1234, 7777, etc.

I don't think people will cross over into Arkansas to play multi-state lotto games like Powerball or Hot Lotto, or any of the lotto games. With the multi-state games it doesn't matter where you buy the ticket. And lotto games like Pick 3 operate pretty much the same in most states.

However, a few people near the border may go over to Arkansas to buy scratch off tickets if their scratch offs appear to have better pay rates than Oklahoma.

There will be some lost revenue for Oklahoma (and Missouri as well) if Arkansas adopts a lottery.
