$517,000 — and 23 Envelopes Left

Kin Club of Russell volunteers calling the weekly Catch the Ace winner
RUSSELL, ONTARIO, November 5, 2026 — The estimated jackpot has climbed to $517,000 — which the Kin Club of Russell believes is currently the largest jackpot in Ontario. And this Sunday, someone takes home an estimated $17,000 weekly prize no matter what card their envelope hides.

Twenty-nine Sunday draws into the eighth edition of Catch the Ace, just 23 envelopes remain in play — and every week the Ace stays hidden, the odds of finding it get a little better.

The lottery is run entirely by volunteers, and the vast majority of every dollar raised stays close to home — supporting hospitals, food banks, youth programs, mental-health initiatives and dozens of other local causes across Prescott-Russell and the Ottawa region. More than $688,000 has already been raised for local charities this round alone — pushing the all-time total past $8.3 million. Across every edition so far, Catch the Ace has now passed $19 million in ticket sales and $9.5 million in prizes.

Why It Works

The quiet magic of Catch the Ace is that everyone wins something. Half of every ticket goes straight to local charities; the rest builds the weekly prize and the ever-growing jackpot. So whether or not your envelope hides the Ace, your $10 is already doing good somewhere close to home.

The Kin Club of Russell has been supporting Eastern Ontario causes for decades — from CHEO and local hospitals to food banks, Special Olympics and neighbourhood projects. See the charities supported here.


How to Play

Buy a ticket and choose an envelope number from the 23 still in play. If your ticket is drawn, you win that week’s weekly prize. Your chosen envelope is then opened — and if it holds the Ace of Spades, you also take home the progressive jackpot. Each week the Ace stays hidden, another envelope is retired and the odds of finding it get a little better.

Tickets: $10 each, online at russellkincta.ca or at retail locations (Ontario only)
Online ticket deadline: Saturday, November 7 at 10:00 PM ET
Live draw: Sunday, November 8 at 3:15 PM ET
