THUNDER BAY RESIDENT CELEBRATING $250,000 WIN WITH DAILY KENO

TORONTO, ONJacqueline Landry of Thunder Bay knows how to pick ’em. Her DAILY KENO 10 PICK resulted in a $250,000 win in the December 25, 2024 MIDDAY draw.

Jacqueline, a retiree, has been a long-time lottery player with OLG, enjoying a variety of jackpot and INSTANT games. While she has had some modest wins over the years, nothing could have prepared her for the rush of winning big with DAILY KENO!

“I checked my ticket using the OLG app on my tablet. That’s when I discovered I’d won big,” Jacqueline recalled, while visiting the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to claim her winnings. “It was a shocking and emotional moment filled with excitement and happy tears. I think I’m still in shock!” she smiled. “I’ve shared the good news with my family, and everyone is thrilled for me.”

With her windfall, Jacqueline plans to pay some bills, buy a new vehicle, and treat herself.

DAILY KENO players pick their strategy (from a 2 Pick to a 10 Pick) and pick their bet ($1, $2, $5 or $10) to pick their prize. Visit the DAILY KENO page on OLG.ca for more information.

The winning ticket was purchased at Husky on Alloy Drive in Thunder Bay.
