A Dromana man is eager to dust off his passport and book overseas flights to catch up with some old friends after scooping a $108,000 win in a recent Keno draw.
The Mornington Peninsula man scored the Keno Classic 9 Spot prize in draw 145, drawn Friday 3 March 2023, and takes home a total prize of $108,992.40.
Confirming his fun money with an official from Keno this morning, the Victorian was still trying to come to grips with the fact a major win had landed his way.
“It’s great! It’s the most I’ve ever won!” he exclaimed.
“When I saw the numbers, I had to do a double take.
“I have a system where I play eight and nine numbers, and thankfully, it worked in my favour!
“I raise money for our local cricket team through a raffle, so I didn’t have the chance to celebrate as I had to do that straight after the draw, but there’s no doubt I’ll be celebrating soon!
“I’ve been meaning to go overseas and catch up with some long-time friends.
His winning Keno Classic 9 Spot entry was purchased from Peninsula Club, 1/3 Noel Street, Dromana.
