Despite going on for 47 weeks, the Chase the Ace in northern New Brunswick still lives on.
Despite going on for 47 weeks, the Chase the Ace in northern New Brunswick still lives on.
With $7.3 million on the line, one lucky person had the chance to choose from one of six cards Tuesday night, one of which held the elusive ace of hearts.
This week’s winner of the draw, Rénald Boudreau, had that chance, but instead of the ace he pulled the king of spades.
While he didn’t walk away with millions, Boudreau still took home a consolation prize of more than $400,000.
Chase the Ace is also a fundraiser for Friends of Healthcare and the local ATV club. Since Feb. 2023, no one has been able to draw the elusive ace of hearts which secures the jackpot.
“We’re probably the largest Chase the Ace in Canada at this point,” said Rene Beaudet with Friends of Healthcare and co-organizer of the game.
“The consolation prize is bigger than most Chase the Ace jackpot.”
