Joker Poker Rules

  •  You must be a member of Issaquah Aerie #3054 in order to participate in this RAFFLE, and you MUST present your membership card and be a member in good standing to win cash prizes. The starting pot for this game will be $2500.00.
  • Each Joker Poker raffle ticket costs $1.00. When a ticket is purchased, the buyer must write their name on the back of the lined ticket and drop that ticket into the collection container for that evening’s game. Tickets drawn that appear intentionally folded will be disqualified.
  • The game will start with fifty-three (53) standard players cards, including one (1) Joker. Each envelope numbered 1 through 53 contains one (1) playing card.
  • The buyer MUST be present to win for each of the three drawings. There will be NO RE-DRAWS.  If the owner of the first drawn ticket is not present, no envelope will be opened that week.  The winner member will be given until 7:10pm the night of the drawing to claim their ticket.  A short amount of time will be given to locate winners of the subsequent drawings.
  • There will be three drawings, 7:00pm, 7:30pm, and 8:00pm.
  • Ticket sales will begin at 6:00pm the day of the drawing, and will end at 6:55pm to allow for all tickets to be signed and placed in the mixer.
  • Drawn raffle tickets will be announced, and the matching ticket must be presented by the person whose name is written on the ticket to confirm they are the winner.
  • The winner of Joker Poker will collect $1000.00 the night the winning Joker is found. Arrangements must be made to receive the remainder of the winnings on another day.  There are no exceptions to this rule.
  • If no Joker is selected, the cash prizes for each drawing will be $50.00 each.
  • After the 3 drawings, that night’s game tickets will be disposed of.
  • The cash pot of this game will be capped at $5000.00. After the cap is reached, subsequent ticket proceeds will go to fund a future pot.
  • The Aerie will receive fifteen (15%) percent of the net proceeds of each week’s Joker Poker game. The amount will be totaled at the end of the game, with percentages and allotments determined by Aerie policy.

Remember, winning participants must present their membership receipts and the matching ticket in order to receive a cash prize. 

 These rules are effective as of November 15, 2023, as approved by the Board of Trustees
