Win $5,000 in BCLC Poker Hold'em Promotion
The British Columbia Lottery Corporation is more than just about lottery tickets, as it now and then runs super specials to suit players across the board.
The BCLC's Pacific Hold'em Poker promotion is one such example, and players who haven't taken advantage of this special yet are urged to do so as there aren't many days left of the competition.
Players have until January 8th next year to enter $4 worth of non-winning Pacific Hold'em Poker tickets sold by BCLC, to put themselves in line to win $50 worth of free play coupons.
Players need to put these tickets into an envelope entry form, write their contact details and deposit the envelope into a draw box.
The BCLC said that it would accept multiple entries as long as the non-winning tickets in each envelope entered total no less than $4.
Each retailer with a draw box will conduct a special draw on January 8th, and $50 worth of Pacific Hold'em Poker Free Play coupons will be awarded to a lucky player from each location.
And there's more...
The winner from each location will be entered into a grand BCLC Pacific Hold'em Poker promotion prize draw on February 8th, 2012 at the BCLC, where 10 lucky players who have their names drawn will each win $5,000 in cash!
The Free Play tickets are not exchangeable for cash and any tickets unused after March 31st will not be redeemable.
How to Play BCLC Pacific Hold'em Poker
Players are able to purchase Pacific Hold'em Poker tickets through a BCLC retailer for just $2 a play. It is possible to play up to five draws, with the option of playing up to five hands per draw.
Should the player's best five card hand beat the table (ie. all four opponents' hands on the screen), players win a share of the prize pot for each $2 wagered. If there is no player's hand to beat the table, all ticket holders with the next best hand share the prize pot for every $2 wagered.
Players can also win the Bad Beat Jackpot if they have a straight flush or a four-of-a-kind and they did not beat the winning opponent's hand.
The odds of beating the table in BCLC's Pacific Hold'em Poker are 1:5.44, while the odds of winning the bad beat jackpot is 1:31,719.
The chances of winning any prize are 1:5.29.
