Hands and Decks
In the Joker Jackpot game a hand is an individual grid of 9
squares made up of 3 rows and 3 columns.
Each square contains a card so 9 cards appear on each hand.
The price of a hand may vary depending on the game. When hands
are available for purchase, the hand price is clearly published on
the face of each hand, in the "Purchase Hands" pop-up window and at
the top of the "Hand Area" of the bingo window.
In the Joker Jackpot game, a deck is a group of 6 hands. Every
possible number from card in a standard deck including 2 joker
cards (black and red) will appear on each full deck.
In Joker Jackpot, a hand is a ticket and a strip is a deck.
Game Prizes/Jackpots
The prizes/jackpots offered in each Joker Jackpot game each have
a minimum guaranteed jackpot but the actual prize is determined by
the number of players/hands purchased per game. The more
players/hands purchased, the bigger the jackpot!
There is one game type in play for Joker Jackpot with 2 separate
prizes available. Prize type 1 is the J pattern; the player who is
the first to have all the cards called on the J pattern on a
purchased hand will win the 1st prize. Prize type 2 is the Full
Hand; the player who is the first to have all the cards called on a
purchased hand will win the 2nd prize.
You will be a winner and will receive the current prize
regardless of whether you have marked the cards on the winning
hand. The Joker Jackpot game will automatically identify a win.
Winners will be visibly published in Joker Jackpot and the Joker
Jackpot Caller will make an announcement.
Two or more players can win/share a prize in Joker Jackpot (J
Pattern or full hand), i.e. players' may have hands which meet the
prize criteria on the same card. A single player may also win a
prize more than once too! I.e. this can only happen if the player
purchased hands from other decks in such circumstances the cash
prize will be split in equal proportions between the winners.
Winnings will be deposited directly into the player's account.
