OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) -- State lottery officials will start a new game that's similar to Powerball.

The game requires players to match five numbered balls and those that do will win $35,211, $25,000 after taxes.

Lottery officials are hoping the new game will prevent a drop-off in sales after the first full year of the lottery.

The Lottery Commission is estimating sales and other earnings will bring in more than $400-million in the next fiscal year and provide education with at least $124-million.
