PROGRESSIVE HOLE-IN-ONE JACKPOT RULES

1. In order to qualify for the Hole-in-one (H.I.O) JACKPOT offered at a VGT event, a player must
be entered into the $20 skins game/hole-in-one pot for that event. If there is no winner of the
hole-in-one at VGT event, the current hole-in-one pot will carry over to the next event until we
have a winner of the jackpot. If by the end of the Winter Tour the jackpot has not been won, the
current jackpot will be carried over into the Summer Tour schedule commencing on March 20th,
2017.
2. If the jackpot accumulates to $5,000, it will be cut-off at $5,000 and the first eligible person (see
above) to score a hole-in-one on an eligible jackpot hole will receive the $5,000 payout. A
secondary Hole-in-one purse will be started as soon as the original jackpot reaches
$5,000. From the time the original purse reaches $5,000, moneys collected for the H.I.O purse
will accumulate in this secondary pot while the first pot remains at $5,000. The secondary pot will
continue to grow until the next eligible player scores a hole-in-one on the designated jackpot hole
at a VGT event. The maximum H.I.O purse paid out at any time will be $5,000, and once the pot
has reached $5,000, a 3rd and 4th purse (and so on) will be established for future winners.
3. Due to the skill difference of Pros versus the Amateurs in the field, we level the playing field for
the JACKPOT two ways:
1. By allowing the A & B amateurs to tee-off a shorter designated tee-box at various times
compared to Professionals and Championship Amateurs.
2. VGT hosts numerous Amateur only events where Amateurs have a chance to win the
JACKPOT without Pros in the field.
