How to Play

There are three elements to the game. 

First, there are $195 in instant wins within each deal.  Second, one player that holds a red 13 ticket will be identified by unveiling the tab on sealcard 1.  That player will move on to sealcard 2 where he or she is guaranteed to win a minimum of $250.  Other prizes on sealcard 2 are “Half Jackpot” and “Jackpot”.

Players open five windows on the back of the ticket.  Winning symbol combinations are identified on the front of each ticket.  All instant winners are determined by matching three identical symbols (the 1 holder of three red 7 bars will win $50, the 1 holder of three chips will win $25, the 10 holders of three money hats will win $5 each and the 140 holders of three money stacks will win $0.50 each).  There is a total of $195 in instant winners in each deal.

There are also 18 “Hold” tickets that are identified by a number ending in a “Red 13” (numbers 013 through 1713, inclusive).  Once all tickets in a deal have been sold, the gaming operator will unveil the window on sealcard 1 which will have one of the hold numbers under the window.  The holder of that ticket will then move to sealcard 2. 

Sealcard 2 has 12 windows on it.  The holder of the winning sealcard 1 ticket will direct the gaming manager to open one of the windows on sealcard 2.  Under ten of the windows, a prize amount of $250 will appear and be awarded to the holder of the winning sealcard 1 ticket.   One of the windows will have “Half Jackpot” under it, and the holder of the winning sealcard 1 ticket selecting that window will win one half the jackpot amount (minimum $250).  The final window will have “Jackpot” under it, and the holder of the winning sealcard 1 ticket who selects that window will win the jackpot amount (minimum $500).

The difference between the actual amount won and $500 is then deposited into the jackpot eligible to be won on the play of the next deal.  If a player selects the jackpot window on sealcard 2, then the jackpot on the next deal is reduced to $500. 

The jackpot continues to grow at a rate of $500 less the amount actually won in any deal until the sealcard 1 winner selects the “JACKPOT” window on sealcard 2.
