Gulfstream and Sun-Sentinel give away cash
The Casino at Gulfstream Park will be conducting a grand prize promotion where one of 300,000 printed “tickets” will be worth a grand prize amount of $250,000. The event will be held today through Feb. 18, from 9 am until close except Monday, 9 am - midnight.
Here’s how it works: The Sun-Sentinel inserted approx. 266,200 “tickets” into today's newspaper to all home subscribers except North Palm Beach zone. In addition, approximately 35,000 pieces will be mailed to Player’s Club members Anyone bringing a ticket in must either already be a member or sign up for the Good Luck Players Club. The first 10,000 people to come in will have a chance to play for the $250,000 prize.
Good Luck Player’s Club membership is required for participation in the promotion.
NICK SORTAL began playing 3-card "gut" and "Indian poker" on high school band trips, moved on to "night baseball" and "pass the trash" during a Dr. Pepper-infused midnight game in the 1980s at the St. Louis Globe-Democrat, and now play in a regular neighborhood Hold 'Em game in Plantation. I have been given the assignment of writing about the gambling life in South Florida casinos for the Sun-Sentinel...which means sitting around watching poker on TV now counts as research.
