Tour de France Cycling 2023 - Rules for Multi-Rider 22 & 44 Ticket Sweepstake
Plucky will offer several Tour de France 2023 Sweepstakes. The two formats in question here will both be multi-rider ticket sweepstakes, one will have 22 tickets with 8 of the main riders (no reserve riders) on each ticket and the other will have 44 tickets with 4 of the main riders on each ticket.
Plucky will use the field of 176 cyclists representing the main eight riders of each of the 22 teams participating i.e. no reserves.
The reserve riders (normally numbered 9&10, 19&20 all the way up to 219&220) will not be included.
In the unlikely event that one of these reserve riders win the Tour de France, Plucky’s winner will be the highest placed from our field of 176 riders which made up the draw.
Each sweepstake ticket will contain either the name or the numbers on the jersey of either 4 or 8 riders.
There will therefore be either 44 or 22 tickets available in these sweepstakes.
The cyclists’ numbers on each ticket have already been selected at random and are available below. A video of the randomisation process is available upon request.
The randomised process by which we assigned a rider’s number to a ticket is described in our general Rules of the Game and has been recorded for compliance purposes. Here we took the numbers of the top 8 riders in each of the 22 teams (176 riders) and allocated them numbers 1-8, 11-18, 21-28 etc., and have excluded all reserve riders (numbers 9&10, 19&20, 29&30 etc.). When the actual field is published, we will match each randomised number with each rider’s actual number and publish them here also.
Both of these multi-rider sweepstakes will be ‘winner takes all’ events with only one prize for the winner.
Each ticket will be either scratched off at random by the customer or will be allocated at random by Plucky where the customer is unable to participate in the ‘draw’ itself.
In the case of private individual sweepstakes, first shall receive 90.25% of the total pot.
In the case of sweepstakes being held in aid of charities or clubs, the latter shall receive 40.25% of the ‘gross’ pot (less 15% Pool Betting Duty) and the winner shall receive 50%.
Should there be a tie for first place, the prize will be divided by the number of tickets and shared equally between the relevant ticket holders.
In the case that one or more cyclists do not start the race or are disqualified or withdrawn during the event, then that customer will lose the possibility of winning with that cyclist.
The sweepstake result is based on the result declared immediately following the finishing Stage of the event. Any subsequent change in the placings (eg.due to disqualification) will not affect the sweepstake result.
Winner’s funds will be credited to customer’s accounts within 24 hours of the result being declared. In the unlikely event of some force majeure preventing the Tour de France from taking place, all entries will be void and all funds will be credited back to customers’ accounts, less a small deduction to cover Plucky’s transaction costs. This will be a maximum of 5%.
These rules should be read in conjunction with Plucky’s general Rules of the Game and Terms and Conditions.
