Chase the Ace Contest Rules
Note: The winning ticket holder does not need to be present at the time of the draw to win.
- The cost of tickets: 1 for $5.00, 3 for $10.00 and 7 for $20.00.
- Random ticket draw takes place at 7:15 pm – winner gets 10% of ticket sales from that event.
- The winner of the evening draw will then select a sealed envelope containing a card, either in person or by phone, from the envelopes remaining on the board. If, after 15 minutes, the winner cannot be reached, a member of the sponsoring groups will be selected to act as the winner’s representative and that person will select a card on the winner’s behalf.
- If the Draw winner selects the envelope containing the Ace of Hearts, they will also win the jackpot (including 40% of the week’s event’s ticket sales).
- If the Ace of Hearts isn’t selected, 40% of the event’s ticket sales goes into the prize pot for next week’s draw.
- The prize pot grows larger every week.
- The contest continues with the same deck of cards until the Ace of Hearts is selected.
- Once the Ace of Hearts is drawn – a new contest begins.
- Each week the number of cards in the remaining deck decreases by one – the card selected.
- There is no limit on the number of tickets that can be purchased for a draw.
- Tickets may only be purchased by those physically in the Province of New Brunswick.
- The winner will be given their winnings in the form of a cheque.
Thank-you for supporting the growth and improvement of our Community and it’s member’s!
