Is this promotion worth it?
Perhaps the most difficult part of the promotion is that in order to receive your entries, you must also play an amount equal to or greater than the amount deposited on that day to receive your entries. This is kind of a steep requirement as it essentially puts all of your money at risk to take part in the promotion. The good news is that this will limit the number of players participating, to a large extent.
Still, without knowing how many players will qualify, this promotion may not be worth playing unless you planned to play the PA online lottery anyway. If you fit into this category, it’s an excellent promotion that will provide you with extra value of your play.
