Walkerston Woman Bags Big Keno Win

A Walkerston woman has shared she was too shocked to speak as she watched her special numbers appear in front of her eyes, bagging her an amazing $82,000 in a recent Keno draw.

The Mackay winner held a Keno Classic 7 Spot winning entry with a multiplying boost in draw 595, drawn Saturday 23 July 2022. Her total prize was $82,098.70.

Confirming her win with an official from Keno, the winning woman said the win may not have happened if not for the fact she couldn’t remember one of her favourite numbers.

“This is a dream come true,” she yelled.

“The entry was full of birthdays and special dates, but I couldn’t remember one of them and ended up putting a different number in.

“I’m glad I did now!

“I can’t wait to pay off my mum’s car. It’s been a tough few years so this is really going to help.

“It’s going to provide us with some much-needed stability moving forward.

“I can’t believe it happened to me!”

Her winning entry was purchased at Pacific Hotel, 68 James Street, Yeppoon.
