Pacific Hold'Em Poker

Top prizeShared pot + Bad Beat Jackpot

A poker hand every few minutes

Pacific Hold'Em Poker is a B.C. lottery using poker-style hands rather than online poker play. A $2 ticket provides two cards, combined with five shared cards and compared against on-screen hands. Drawings occur every six minutes, and tickets are sold only at participating bars, pubs and selected casinos.

How to play

Playing Pacific Hold'Em Poker in three steps

1

Buy a $2 hand

You get a two-card hand. You can raise your bet to $4, $6, $8 or $10.

2

A draw every 6 minutes

Draws run from about 11:02 AM to 2:00 AM Pacific Time.

3

Beat the table

Your best five-card hand must use a minimum of one of your own two cards (except for the Prize B category). Beat every on-screen hand to win — a tie with an on-screen hand counts as a loss.
