(1) After receiving a winning punch or pull-tab for more than twenty dollars or merchandise with a retail value of more than twenty dollars, operators must immediately permanently and conspicuously delete all reference to the prize from the flare and from any other list, sign, or notice. Operators then must pay or deliver the prize to the winner.
(2) On step-up punch boards and bonus pull-tab games, once all chances to win in a section of the flare are won, operators must delete all references to prizes.
(3) Operators may correct an inadvertently deleted prize by noting on the flare that such prize is still available. When they actually award the prize, operators must permanently and conspicuously delete the reference.
(4) If operators elect to delete prizes of less than twenty dollars from flares, they must continue to do so until they remove the games from play.
