A Warwick man hasn’t stopped grinning like a Cheshire cat after his regular Keno numbers snagged him a $68,000 Keno windfall.
The Southern Downs resident scored the Keno Classic 8 Spot jackpot in Keno draw 354 on Friday 17 October 2025. He pocketed a dazzling $68,378.40.
“I’m pretty good today!” he laughed when speaking to an official from Keno.
“I haven’t stopped smiling.
“It’s great news for me. It’ll certainly come in handy.
“I’ve already thought about it and I’m going to put it away in a fixed deposit and keep it for retirement.
“I always use the same Keno numbers so when I saw them all come up, I was over the moon.
“Thank you so much!”
His winning Keno Classic entry was purchased from Criterion Hotel, 84 Palmerin St, Warwick.
The Criterion Hotel team said they were thrilled for their winning patron and wished him all the best with his prize.
