LOTTERY SPONSORSHIP FOR POKER EVENT

WSOP action through the Pennsylvania Lottery

The Pennsylvania Lottery will award five separate trips to the World Series of Poker Tournament this year in a $100,000 Hold 'Em Poker second-chance drawing Monday, April 10.

The five contestants selected will each receive a seat at a World Series of Poker tournament event, saving themselves the $10,000 buy-in, round-trip airfare for two, six-night/seven-day hotel accommodations at a first-class hotel selected by the Lottery, paid federal withholding taxes and $1,000 in spending money.

Winners may also elect to take the $20,000 cash value of the prize package. Winners under age 21 will automatically receive the cash prize. Pennsylvania Lottery players must be 18 or older.

Full details on how to enter are available from the Lottery, and entries must be received by April 7, 2006.

The Pennsylvania Lottery's $100,000 Hold 'Em Poker instant ticket game remains on sale. There still are five $100,000 top prizes, four $50,000 prizes, and 13 World Series of Poker tournament prize packages remaining in the game.
