Friyay for a lucky Canberran Keno winner

One lucky Canberran will renovate her home after winning $119,274 in Keno Mega Millions 8 on Friday night (26 June).

The ACT woman said she was in disbelief when she saw her numbers appear in game 583 while watching on her phone.

“I don’t normally watch the draws on my phone, but on Friday night when I saw I’d won a major prize, I was at first in disbelief,” she said.
 
“I thought for sure something had gone wrong and maybe it was wrong and I’d misread it. It was amazing. Such a great surprise, it was really good.”
 
The winner, who wished to remain anonymous, said the win had come at the perfect time – just as she had started renovating her home.
 
“It’s certainly going to really come in handy,” she said.
 
“We’ve just started some renovations around the house so I will be able to get those all done. It’s perfect.”

Keno is played in more than 3,400 pubs across the country, and online. Friday’s winner purchased her spot through the Keno app.
