I tried a few in West Memphis

I bought 10 Jumbo Bucks and 2 Cash Bonanza ($30 Bucks)

I ended up only winning $9 dollars (Jumbo) so I lost .....$21

Mabey I'll try -em again someday

Great, another RNG state. Get ready for bad luck Arkansans. I live in Tennessee and now play only in Virginia except for Powerball.

The people don't trust those machines but as usual the politicians don't care what the people want.

Good luck anyway.

Too bad their local online games will use the RNG...Arkansas should learn from Indiana and Tennessee's mistake in that regard. I won't spend a cent on Indy Lotto no matter how big the jackpot is, but I will buy their Powerball tickets as their game slip gives one an option not available in Wisconsin...the ability to pick the few numbers you feel like playing and letting the machine pick the rest in the field of 5 + 1. That might explain why Indiana has so many more Powerball winners than Wiscons... [ More ]

I bought mine at 12:01 am. I spent $50 and won $77. So i'll definitely be reinvesting. :)

I got some of each but Cash Bonanza (3/4 winners) and Jumbo Bucks (3/5) were the best so far.

I just got back from buying two. I did not win anything. It was fun but I don't see myself playing scratch off that often. I guess I will just wait until PB and the Draw games get here.
