A Moree man has declared that 2025 is looking brighter already after he pocketed a $122,000 Keno prize yesterday.

The Northern New South Wales resident held a Keno Classic 8 Spot winning entry with x2 Bonus in draw 359 on Monday 30 December 2024. He won a total of $122,859.70.

“I didn’t think I’d win that much!” the winning man exclaimed when speaking to a Keno official.

“I nearly fell over backwards!

“It’s a great way to end 2024, and hopefully 2025 is much better now.

“I always play my own set of numbers – just random ones I’ve picked. Last week, I got seven out of the eight numbers, and this week, I got all eight!

“I usually play Keno Bonus too, which boosted the prize.

“I’m going to put it somewhere safe for the future. It’s always nice to have a nest egg.

“You never know when you might need it and I like to pay my own way.”

The man’s winning entry was purchased at Moree Services Club, 3 Albert Street, Moree.
