50/50-With 6 cards left Grant Terrill picked for the Queen but she did not reveal herself. Grant won $5?, &  $121? rolls over!
 
Members are enjoying this new way of giving back for the 50/50.
50% to the club, and the other 50% gets split- 1/3 goes to the one who picks for the Queen and 2/3 gets rolled over.
