The chosen envelope will be opened and the playing card revealed. If the card revealed is not the Ace of Spades, the selected envelope/card is eliminated from the following weeks available envelopes/cards. If the envelope selected with the winning weekly draw ticket 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.
PROGRESSIVE JACKPOT: If the envelope associated with the winning weekly draw ticket reveals the Ace of Spades (including week 1), the weekly draw winner will also receive the Chase the Ace Progressive Jackpot, consisting of 30 percent of all ticket sales collected over all weeks.
