Conduct of Paddlewheel Without a Table - Part 2

Awarding Prizes; Defacing Winning Tickets

The LG830 Merchandise Prize Perpetual Inventory is used to record merchandise prizes awarded. Separate LG830 forms may be used. 

Upon awarding the prize, the seller must deface and keep the redeemed winning ticket. All winning paddletickets must be defaced. The most common method is to staple the ticket to the paddleticket card.

Multiple Winners Per Spin

A prize must be awarded to the holder of the ticket that matches the number indicated by the paddlewheel pointer. 

Multiple sets of tickets may be sold for the same spin. All tickets from each set used must be sold prior to spinning the wheel. 

An organization may also offer prizes to the ticket numbers bordering the winning number on the wheel. If so, those prizes must be displayed in the same manner as the prize awarded to the ticket indicated by the pointer.

Closing the Occasion

When closing the occasion, the seller must: 

• place a cover over the paddlewheel or otherwise make it inoperable; 
• count the cash in the game drawer; 
• separate the starting cash bank amount from the game proceeds; and 
• enter the date the game was closed on the LG847 Current Site Inventory, or the LG844 Perpetual Inventory.

All Games in Play Closed at Month End

At the end of the month all partially played groupings of paddleticket cards must be closed. Report played paddleticket groupings with any unsold paddletickets on the Schedule B2. The barcode label must be sent with your tax return when the sealed group of tickets is removed from play and reported. A sealed group of tickets is considered one game and one entry on the Schedule B2.
