Most lottery sites stop at the winning numbers. For each of Arkansas's 4 draw games we publish the exact odds from the game's own number matrix, the full prize table, and where the prizes are fixed, the expected value per dollar — the figure that says what a ticket is really worth.

Which numbers come up most in Cash 3?
Across 4,982 Cash 3 draws on its current 0–9 number pool (since 2009), the most-drawn numbers are 7 (1572), 1 (1534), 2 (1507), 0 (1505), 3 (1505). The least-drawn are 8 (1499), 5 (1488), 6 (1457), 4 (1442), 9 (1437).
The commonest number leads the rarest by about 9% — and that means nothing. Across this many draws ordinary random variation produces spreads of roughly this size; a fair game would almost never land every number on an identical count. No number is "due", and none of this predicts the next draw. We only count draws from the game's current number pool, because earlier draws used a different one and mixing them invents a pattern that was never there. We tested whether hot numbers actually win.
