Pennsylvania Jack O' Lantern Jackpot Instant Lottery Game 1363; Change to Game Rules; Amended Notice

[48 Pa.B. 5929]
[Saturday, September 22, 2018]

 Under the State Lottery Law (72 P.S. §§ 3761-101—3761-314) and 61 Pa. Code § 819.203 (relating to notice of instant game rules), the Secretary of Revenue hereby provides public notice of changes to the Pennsylvania Jack O' Lantern Jackpot (hereinafter referred to as ''Jack O' Lantern Jackpot'') instant lottery game rules that were published at 48 Pa.B. 5662 (September 8, 2018).

 The Pennsylvania Lottery intends to clarify the operation of the Spooktacular Second-Chance Drawing. The Pennsylvania Lottery has determined that an animated reveal sequence will not be included in the Second-Chance Drawing to demonstrate the number of entries a player receives for submitting a non-winning ticket Drawing. Additionally, certain provisions of section 10 have been renumbered. The correct version of this document is as follows, with ellipses referring to the existing text as it appeared at 48 Pa.B. 5662—5666:

*  *  *  *  *

 10. Second-Chance Drawing: Pennsylvania Lottery's Spooktacular Second-Chance Drawing for qualifying instant lottery game tickets (hereafter, the ''Drawing'').

*  *  *  *  *

 (c) Drawing Description.

*  *  *  *  *

 (4) When a Qualifying Ticket is entered into the Drawing, the entry has a chance to be multiplied by three (hereafter the ''Entry Tripler Prize''). Each Qualifying Ticket will have a predetermined ticket file assigned at the time the ticket is printed that will determine whether an entry will be multiplied. If an entry is multiplied, the entrant will be notified during the entry process.

*  *  *  *  *

 (d) Prizes Available to be Won, Determination of Winners, and Odds of Winning.

*  *  *  *  *

 (2) The following table sets forth the approximate number of Entry Tripler Prizes and the approximate odds of winning an Entry Tripler Prize:

Qualifying Ticket Approximate Number of Entry Tripler Winners: Approximate Odds Are 1 in:
Jack O' Lantern Jackpot 1,347,197 3
Spooky Cash 2,102,185 2

 (3) The Lottery will conduct one Drawing from among all the entries received during the entry period as described in section 10(c).

 (i) The first and second entries selected in the Drawing will be winning entries and the entrants who submitted the winning entries shall each be entitled to a prize of $31,000, less required income tax withholding.

 (ii) The third through the eighth entries selected in the Drawing will be winning entries and the entrants who submitted the winning entries shall each be entitled to a prize of $13,000, less required income tax withholding.

 (iii) The ninth through the eighteenth entries selected in the Drawing will be winning entries and the entrants who submitted the winning entries shall each be entitled to a prize of $1,000.

 (4) All prizes will be paid as lump-sum cash payments.

 (5) The number of winning entries to be selected for the Drawing will be posted to the Pennsylvania Lottery's publicly accessible website.

 (6) The odds of winning in the Drawing depend upon the number of entries received for the Drawing.

 (7) A computer-generated randomizer will be used to select the Drawing winners.
