The winner will be contacted by phone and asked to choose an envelope from the remaining envelopes each containing a single card from a standard deck of playing cards. The chosen envelope will be opened and revealed. If the winner does not answer, a designated proxy (Beau Atkins) will select an envelope for the weekly winner. If the envelope selected by the weekly winner (or proxy) reveals any playing card other than the Ace of Spades, the game continues. All tickets from the previous week are then voided and ticket sales commence for the next weekly draw.
